About Fabi ☻✹

Fabi Santiago writes and illustrates children’s books.

Fabi was born in Rio and raised in the Brazilian countryside, where the food is spicy hot, and cowboy boots are more than a fashion statement. Aside from her children’s book work, Fabi is a self-taught artist and printmaker. Her favourite things are camping, kayaking, pole dancing, and making zombie apocalypse survival plans.

She is currently writing her first YA novel inspired by her love of 90s horror movies, back-garden parties, and badly behaved, strong female characters. It has zombies in it.

Fabi works from her home studio in London, where she lives with a ginger fellow and their ungrateful (but terribly cute) cats.
