A. F. Harrold is an English poet and children's author, born in 1975. He is best known among younger readers for the comic Fizzlebert Stump series, but for older audiences his standalone novels have drawn particular notice: The Imaginary (2014), illustrated by Emily Gravett, follows a girl's friendship with a boy only she can see and was later adapted into a Netflix animated film; The Song from Somewhere Else (2016) and The Afterwards (2018) continue his blend of gentle strangeness, grief, and friendship aimed at middle-grade readers. Alongside his fiction, Harrold has built a career as a touring performance poet, reading his work at festivals and schools across the UK. His prose keeps the same ear for rhythm and the odd, memorable image that marks his poetry.
