SARAH HOWDEN is the author of several books for children, including Cone Cat, Cone Dog and The Tunnel. Her poems have been published in Grain and Jones Av., and stories in Chirp and Chickadee magazines. Sarah is also an editor at Orca Book Publishers, where she enjoys helping other writers sculpt their stories. She works out writing conundrums on walks around her neighborhood or by distracting herself with snacks (she won't say no to a crunchy pickle). Having grown up in the Niagara Region, she now lives in Toronto with her husband, daughter, and two mischievous cats. Illustrator, animator and sculptor SABINA HAHN has been a voracious reader and an unstoppable doodler her whole life, which has led her into the world of children's books. She loves stories, tall tales and most importantly, pickles. Sabina grew up in Riga, Latvia, and now lives in New York.
""With a briny wit, Howden and Hahn offer up a sly parable suggesting that radical acceptance can be goofy, profound, and green. . . . Full of tangy absurdity, it’s a picture book fit to be relished."" — STARRED REVIEW, Publisher's Weekly ""This delightfully deadpan musing on life urges compassion for others. Howden’s straightforward text is on the philosophical side, though also rooted in the absurd. . . . A thoughtful look at life, in all its beauty and strangeness."" —Kirkus Reviews
