Collection: Jill Murphy

Jill Murphy (1949 – 2021) was a British author and illustrator of children's books. First published in 1974 at the age of 24, her first success came with the enormously popular The Worst Witch series, with The Bear Family (beginning with Peace at Last) and the Large Family (beginning with Five Minutes’ Peace) soon followed. Murphy’s picture books coupled touching stories with stunning illustrations to reflect the warmth and mess of family life.
