About the Author

Eleni Tassopoulos Wehner is the author of the Roscoe & Ivy series (Barefoot Books, Autumn 2025), inspired by real-life strategies she uses with her neurodivergent children. An AuDHD woman, she writes to increase realistic representation of autistic and other neurodivergent children and their families. Eleni lives with her husband and kids in Missouri, where their home is full of compassion, creativity, and laughter.

Danamarie Hosler is an autistic illustrator, fiber artist, and muralist based in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Her work is based around the idea that art should be accessible to all people, in all forms, and she considers her work to be equal parts art, education, and advocacy. In those rare moments when she's not making art, you can find her perfecting her macarons and croissants, or bird watching.
