About the Author
Frances Stickley is a former primary school teacher and trained literacy specialist. She has written several picture books for children that have been published by Walker, Andersen, Nosy Crow, Magic Cat, and Simon & Schuster. She lives in Nottinghamshire UK with her family. When she is not writing you will find her playing dragons in the forest with her daughters.

Emily Hamilton is an artist & illustrator based on the North Devon coast in the UK. She works from her studio at home and likes fine black pens, ocean dips, and a good mug for tea. When she is drawing she loves nothing more than watercolors, gouache, pencils and ink, usually brought together with a flurry of photoshop. When she's not drawing she loves nothing more than her family, fresh air, vegetables, and sunshine surfing. You'll find Emily's work in books, magazines, on cards, fabric and the occasional surfboard!
