About Phil Earle
Phil Earle was born, raised and schooled in Hull. His first job was as a care worker in a children's home, an experience that influenced the ideas behind Being Billy and Saving Daisy. He then trained as a drama therapist and worked in a therapeutic community in south London, caring for traumatized and abused adolescents. After a couple of years in the care sector, Phil chose the more sedate lifestyle of a bookseller, and now works in children's publishing. Phil lives in south-east London with his wife and children, but Hull will always be home.

Reviews for Saving Daisy
With Being Billy and Saving Daisy, Phil Earle has put himself straight into the front rank of YA fiction. Few can touch him for intensity, and none for heart
Anthony McGowan
