Pip Murphy (Philippa Murphy) is a British author and lived her early life in England on the Wirral. She has loved reading her whole life and some of the books that influenced and inspired her the most were ones she read when she was little. She read every book in her primary school, some of them more than once!

Pip studied Classics at Edinburgh University, before relocating to Tokyo, Japan where she now teaches English to secondary school students to people long retired. She believes that humour and creativity are the best ways to learn.
