Ruth Burton

Ruth writes children's picture books. Born in Suffolk, Ruth lived with her parents and two older brothers. Raised in a sport-mad family, although less inclined herself, meant many weekends spent out in the fresh air with plenty of freedom for imaginary games.
A happy school life led Ruth on to study English Literature
at the University of East Anglia after which she completed a Masters at the University of the Arts London. Ruth returned to the coastal county of Suffolk and now resides in a village outside Ipswich with her husband, Roger and three daughters, Jessica, Evie and Lara. A career in Public Relations, creative writing and research, alongside her inspirational and sparky daughters, has steered Ruth on her journey into
children's stories.
