Sheku Kanneh-Mason (Author) Sheku Kanneh-Mason shot to fame as the winner of the 2016 BBC Young Musician competition, the first black musician to win the award since its launch in 1978. He then became a household name after being invited to perform at the 2018 wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, which was watched by billions around the world. He records exclusively for Decca Classics, and enjoys a busy schedule of international concert performances, at venues including Wigmore Hall, Carnegie Hall, and the BBC Proms. In the Queen's 2020 New Year's Honours, he was awarded an MBE for his services to music. Rekha Salin (Illustrator) Rekha Salin is a fine art artist and illustrator from India living in Bahrain. She is attracted to beautiful bright colours and limited colour palettes, and her favourite analogue mediums are acrylics, watercolors and charcoals. When not making art, you will find her having fun with her family, going on long walks or getting lost for hours down the rabbit hole of Pinterest where she researches for her characters and stories.
