Thaitin scéalta de gach saghas i gcónaí le Sadhbh Devlin. Agus í ag fás aníos, ní raibh mórán leabhair Ghaeilge a thaitin léi ar fáil ag an am. Bheartaigh sí, mar sin, go scríobhfadh sí leabhair as Gaeilge nuair a bheadh sí ina duine fásta. Anois, scríobhann Sadhbh pictiúrleabhair sa dá theanga agus tá roinnt gradam buaite aici fiú! ’Sé Gruaig Áine a céad aistriúchán. Tá cónaí uirthi i gCill Mhantáin lena clann agus le puisín dána darb ainm Pico.

When she was growing up, Sadhbh Devlin loved stories and read widely in Irish and in English. But there wasn’t the same choice of books available in Irish. She decided when she was grown up she would write her own stories as Gaeilge! Now, Sadhbh writes picture books in both languages and she’s even won a few awards! Gruaig Áine is her first translation. Sadhbh lives in Wicklow with her family and a bold cat called Pico.
