interview lockup!

We just had the most fabulous visitor to our police station studio, Mei Matsuoka, on a visit from Japan! Her book she’s illustrated with Pete Bently, The Great Dog Bottom Swap, has just been shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize. (It’s a book explaining why dogs sniff each other’s bums and involves bottom swapping and very dodgy things like that.)
We’re going to do a bit more of an online interview thingie and I’ll post more photos, but only when she stops banging around and hollering in her cell. (She was really too lovely for us to let her go home.)

While Mei’s in the clink, you can look at her website and her Wikipedia entry.
