About the Author

Erica Tapp is passionate about storytelling and Bible teaching. She has spent many years on staff in schools and at large churches in central London and St Albans. The focus of her church work was helping children and young people to read, understand, and love the Bible. She now has three young children of her own to read to, and is active in children's work in her local community in Harrow. Julia Seal knew from the age of five what she wanted to do for a living - draw pictures! After graduating with a degree in Graphic Design and Illustration and then working in the greeting card industry (and getting covered in glitter every day!) she finally moved onto her dream job - illustrating children's books. She lives in a small village in England with her husband and two children, who provide plenty of inspiration.
