Robert Hill

Robert Hill grew up in South Wales, United Kingdom. He had a happy childhood, carefree and safe, a childhood which seems vanishingly rare in today’s world; it was a time when children left the house along with the rest of their siblings early in the morning and were given the instruction ‘don’t come home till teatime’. This allowed him and the rest of the kids in the street the whole world – well, the local world – to be his playground. This is where his stories come from: a keen sense of adventure with an inquisitive mind and a willingness to meet and accept others for all their differences.
