Larry Hayes

Larry Hayes is easily distracted. So when he’s not writing books for children he can be found working as an investment fund manager, the trustee for a homeless charity and on Fridays he home-schools his two kids by letting them decide what to study. In the future he hopes to become a treasure hunter, private investigator, inventor of a yoghurt that makes you happy, Olympic croquet medallist and the person who solves the maths behind the human brain. Larry’s debut fiction book for children, How to Survive Without Grown-Ups, was published by Simon & Schuster in 2021.
