Ann Druitt was a trained artist and adult educator.
She wrote the twelve stories that round off The Children’s Year, a sourcebook for the celebration of festivals throughout the year, co-authored with Christine Fynes-Clinton and illustrated by Marije Rowling. With the same team, she also wrote The Birthday Book and All Year Round, both staples of the Hawthorn Press Festivals series.
