Erin Alladin is an author and freelance editor who has always resisted choosing between her passions for ecology and literacy. During her decade working in children’s book publishing, she spent her free hours running a Toronto community permaculture garden. After moving back to her home region of Northern Ontario she co-founded the gardening podcast Plants Always Win. Erin’s nonfiction picture books, Wait Like a Seed and the celebrated Outside, You Notice, praise the natural world and kids’ innate ability to learn from it. When Erin isn’t taking long walks in nature, she can be found growing vegetables and editing books in a little house near Parry Sound with her wife, a forest full of birds, and (still) not enough bookshelves. Miki Sato is a Japanese-Canadian illustrator who uses a variety of different textures and materials to create three-dimensional images. Originally from Ottawa, she moved to Toronto to complete her degree in illustration from the Ontario College of Art and Design. Miki has received many honors for her picture books: her book Snow Days was a finalist for the Elizabeth Mrazik-Cleaver Canadian Picture Book Award, Sunny Days was a 2021 CBC Books Best Book, Windy Days won a Northern Lights Book Award, and While You Sleep was shortlisted for the Bank Street College of Education Best Children's Books of the Year. Her most recent book is Chidori.
