Anne Fine was the second UK Children's Laureate and has won the Carnegie Medal twice, forGoggle EyesandFlour Babies. She has written many children's classics, perhaps most famouslyMadame Doubtfire, the basis for the Hollywood filmMrs Doubtfire. Anne says, "When I was young, it never occurred to me to be an author. But one day I couldn't get to the library in a snowstorm and so sat down and started on a novel. This was the right job for me - I have never stopped writing for more than a few weeks since."
