About the Author

Dana Meachen Rau has written more than 300 books for children, including picture books, early readers, nonfiction, and biographies.

Andrew Thomson is an illustrator based in Southern England who spends his time covered in ink and surrounded by scraps of paper while drinking coffee. As a ten-year-old, he decided to grow up to be someone who draws pictures of swords and shields, knights and castles, and spacemen and rocket ships so that's mostly what he does now.
