About the Author

Caryl Hart is a full time children's writer, who also runs creative workshops with local schools. Her first picture book, Don't Dip Your Chips in Your Drink, Kate! won two regional awards, and was shortlisted for a third. She lives on the top of a windy hill in the Peak District with her guitar-playing husband, two cheeky daughters, one extremely fluffy black cat, a goldfish, four hens and a dog called Roo. Sarah Warburton grew up in Anglesey, North Wales. She spent her formative years drawing horses on the backs of cornflake packets. When she realised she would never actually turn into a horse, she began to look into art as a future career. Sarah has created many books, working for a large variety of publishers, including illustrating the Rumblewick series, about a witch's familiar - employed by a very unwilling witch. Both in picture book and fiction this character has sold worldwide and is under movie option with DreamWorks.
