Grant is the author of the Monkey Magic series of Romy Alexander adventures, and more.

He is a British journalist and children's author who has reported on Olympic Games and World Cups and whose assignments have taken him to far-flung places from North Korea to Clapham North. He now lives in London with his family and is represented by the British agent Catherine Pellegrino at Marjacq. His website is grantsclark.com.

Children and teachers have enjoyed the Monkey Magic series the world over for years - many schools have included it in their curriculum because not only do the books entertain but they educate.

Now, in 2021, the series has been released in the U.S. and Britain.

Monkey Magic: The Curse of Mukada was Grant's first novel, a page-turner of a book that has as its backdrop the heart-breaking destruction of the rainforests and the plight of the orangutan. Part of the royalties has gone to orangutan charities.

The second part of the Monkey Magic series - The Great Wall Mystery - unfolds on China's most famous monument and centres on the illegal trade in endangered species. The third book takes Romy Alexander to America in Monkey Magic: The Ghostly Thieves of New York. Most people who read the books agree: the series gets better with every book.

The novels have received critical acclaim - the first was a nominee for the Hedwig Anuar children's book of the year - and have been published globally by the likes of Hachette and Monsoon Books.

Grant has many other writing projects, including picture books that include humorous verse - Uncle Bill's Missing Tooth was released in the summer of 2021. Ahead of its release, his latest novel for middle grade readers (Horse and Ox) has been described by Harry Potter publisher Barry Cunningham as "truly special."

Further praise for Grant's books:

“Cleverly woven with delicious subplots, Monkey Magic is also strewn with environmental references and information that are played upon in a subtle but vital way. I’ve always loved an engaging story that also teaches – parents, teachers and librarians will be similarly enthralled, for this very reason – but I’m also happy to say that kids won’t become bogged down in a plot full of preaching. The messages are well done, the plot is well-crafted and the storyline is full of enough action, adventure, magic, baddies and goodies to make it a real page-turner.”
