About

I’m Kat Hall, born and raised in Aotearoa, New Zealand.
I have worked as a freelance illustrator for the last five years and I can’t seem to get enough. I have recently moved to Edinburgh, Scotland to explore the other side of the world.

I love putting my imagination on paper (digital paper that is). I have illustrated children’s books, including The Whetū Toa series, Rosie and the Worry Whisperer, Toy Mountain, Your Life Your Way, What makes you stronger.

My other fields of work include educational resources, products, branding, and working with government agencies.

After graduating from Massey University in 2016 with a Bachelor of Design majoring in Illustration, with Honours, I have continued to draw ever since!

FINALIST, Wright Family Foundation Esther Glen Award for Junior Fiction, New Zealand Book Awards for Children and Young Adults 2019

When Whetu’s mother takes a job organising a magician’s house and farm, Whetū becomes the animal keeper, looking after a golden ram, three lazy pigs, talking horses, a cowardly bull and the magician’s stage assistant – an arrogant white rabbit called Errant. Errant’s been playing around with magic and created a carnivorous lamb, which he can’t change back. Rather than face the magician, Errant disappears and Whetū becomes the magician’s new assistant, just in time for the Royal Performance. It all seems to be going well until Errant reappears to seek his revenge, and Whetū must save the day – and the king.
