Lucinda Hare's first book The Dragon Whisperer was described as "One of the most captivating new books to be published for 8+ for some time . . . It made me laugh, cry and remember exactly what's so special about the time when you or your child live in hope of finding a dragon of your own" (Amanda Craig The Sunday Times)

Lucinda lives with a badly behaved pack of ten cats, three dogs and two rabbits. Run away battery hens have also been given a home. They are all adopted and many have special needs. They provide all the inspiration needed for Lucinda's many dragon characters.

Lucinda experimented with many different jobs but found writing about animals, in particular the large scaled flying variety with lethal talons, teeth and tails far more fun.
