Jerome Martin (Author)
Jerome Martin has written children's books about science, history, Shakespeare and food. Before joining Usborne in 2014, he spent a decade studying literature at Harvard, Cambridge and the University of Iowa, and several years behaving responsibly in a copywriting office. Now, he spends his working hours researching delightful and amazing facts, his evening hours parenting two children, and the minutes in-between writing poetry.

Minna Lacey (Author)
Since joining Usborne, Minna has written books on everything from pirates and gladiators to jungles and oceans. She studied Maths and Philosophy at university and previously worked as a journalist and illustrator in London, Bogota and New York. In her spare time, she loves writing stories, drawing and playing the guitar.

Jonathan Melmoth (Author)
Jonathan has fond memories of eating biscuits and reading Usborne books in his grandmother's cosiest armchair as a child, so it was only natural to end up eating biscuits and writing Usborne books as a grown-up. He studied Russian at university and his favourite topics to write about are history and geography, but he'll happily tackle any subject that might give him an edge in the next pub quiz.
