About the Author
Tegen Evans is a children's book author and editor based in London. She has an English degree from Oxford University and now spends her time researching and writing about all kinds of topics for children - from Greek myths to woodland adventures. When she's not at her desk, you can usually find her wandering around the parks and bookshops of southeast London. Tegen also writes under the pen-name Goldie Hawk. Her books have been translated into 18 languages. Nina Chakrabarti is an award-winning illustrator who grew up in Kolkata, India, and moved to the United Kingdom in her teens. She brings her joyful style and distinctive line quality to an eclectic range of work. Taking inspiration from both the extraordinary and the often overlooked, Nina has created a series of illustrated books that invite both children to reflect on their relationships with all sorts of things - from fungi to fashion, from ancient pots to a childhood stamp collection. She lives and works in Hastings, England.Dimensions (Overall): 11.05 Inches (H) x 9.14 Inches (W) x .38 Inches (D)
