Sam Baer

Biography

Sam Baer grew up on the tiny island of Jersey before setting off on adventures in not-quite-so-tiny England. Since 2011, he’s been writing books about everything from imps and elves to Victorian fashion. It’s a dream job (almost as good as being a superhero).

As well as writing books and stories for Usborne, Andy has published several fantasy novels about demons and dark magic. He likes playing board games and making up imaginary worlds.
