Cat Weldon is a children’s author who writes funny stories and has a particular interest in history and world mythology. Her debut Viking trilogy, How to be a Hero, was published by Macmillan Children’s Books. 

With a master’s degree in Scriptwriting and a background in children’s theatre, Cat now splits her time between writing, teaching, and chasing her collection of delinquent (but not evil) chickens through the neighbour’s gardens.

Cat lives in East Anglia with her family and can often be found in museums. Follow her on twitter @WeldonCat
