Krys Saclier believes children's literature has the power to shape the future. She has written for television, radio and press and is the creator of the Kids Only podcast. She is a committee member of the ACT Branch of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) and is a founding member of the Canberra Children's Writers' Group. Cathy Wilcox has been drawing cartoons since she was old enough to scratch the furniture. She earned her letters at Art College and was eventually taken in by the Sydney Morning Herald. There, she churns out cartoons almost daily since 1989, pausing only to procreate, make cups of tea and collect cartooning awards.
