Laura MilliganLaura Milligan grew up (not down) in London, with her loony father to guide her on the way to adulthood. He gave her instructions on how to make nuns disappear on exploding chairs, and how to wizzle-pop without detection... At school, Laura daydreame about toothless dragons, hairy fairies and owning her own sweet shop. She found these daydreams much more enjoyable than Mrs Hatchet's maths class.
