Miranda Birthisel lives on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland with her husband and three children. When she isn’t building Lego masterpieces or making copious amounts of snacks, you can find her in the children’s section of the library. Miranda is a primary school teacher and hopes her fun stories make even the most reluctant reader want to pick up a book for enjoyment. Jedda Robaard is a children's book illustrator and author whose work is well known internationally, having been published in many languages, including English, French, Dutch, Greek, Italian, Korean and Chinese. Jedda grew up in a small town on the island of Tasmania, Australia. She now lives on the coast of Victoria, Australia, with her husband, two daughters and a son, a nervous dachshund, a naughty border collie, a couple of cats, a few chickens, and a rather bitty cockatiel.
