Helen Sonia Cooper (born 1963 in London) is a British illustrator and an author of children's literature. She grew up in Cumbria, where she practiced literature and piano playing. She currently lives in Oxford.[1]

Cooper has twice been awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal from the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP), recognising the year's best children's book illustration by a British subject.[2][3] She won for The Baby Who Wouldn't Go To Bed in 1996, which she wrote and illustrated.[4] In 1998 she won for Pumpkin Soup, which she also wrote and illustrated. They were consecutive projects for her.[5]

Beside winning the two Greenaway Medals (no one has won three), Cooper made the shortlist for The Bear Under the Stairs (Doubleday, 1993) and Tatty Ratty (Doubleday, 2001).[6][7]

As well as her solo picture books, Cooper writes picture book texts for other illustrators, and also illustrates her own middle grade fiction - most recently, The Taming of the Cat' published by Faber and Faber in the UK.

WorldCat reports that Pumpkin Soup is her work most widely held in participating libraries.[8]
