Emily Gravett
Recognized in the Creative Minds Montessori 2026 Teacher’s Choice list.
Emily Gravett is one of roughly one hundred authors whose work was selected by the Montessori-certified teachers at Creative Minds Montessori for the 2026 Teacher’s Choice list — 120 books chosen across four reading stages, from first lap-reads to first chapter books. The selected book was chosen for how precisely it meets children at a real developmental moment. This recognition cannot be bought: no author or publisher paid to appear on our lists, and we take no commission on any book sale.
About Emily Gravett
Emily Gravett is a two-time Kate Greenaway Medal winner whose witty, meta-inclined picture books play games with the physical book itself — chewed corners, letters that fall out, plots that rearrange.
Gravett spent eight years living in a converted bus traveling Britain before art school; her first published book, Wolves, won the Greenaway and announced a completely original comic voice.
