Lorna Lovell Stallman lives in Des Moines, Iowa, USA, but grew up on a farm, which was a lot of hard work but also a lot of fun. She enjoyed helping with chores, even when it meant being chased by two incredibly rude sheep. Lorna tried to instill a love of country life in her two children and is still a farm girl at heart. She likes to include animals in her stories and lives with two of her favourite animals, English setter Phoebe and ragdoll cat Indigo. Katrijn Jacobs is a Belgian illustrator who loves to draw.

She transforms these things into playful, cheerful illustrations with a high sensitivity factor. She also works on art projects, murals, and personalised illustrations.
