About the Author

Tom Adams (Author)
Tom Adams is a children's author who juggles his time between writing books and making television programmes. He was born in Yorkshire but now lives in Kent with his wife and their three teenage sons. When he's not at his desk writing, he's often scribbling ideas for books and TV shows down in his notebook. He likes lots of sports, cooking, walking and playing the guitar but is slowly realising that his children are better than him at most of these things. He dislikes weeding the garden but does it anyway.

Yas Imamura (Illustrator)
Yas Imamura is an Asian American illustrator living in Portland, Oregon. Her works include collaborations with Anthropologie, Sanrio as well as her growing list of children's books. Her preferred materials are gouache and watercolour and often finds herself drawn to projects that are playful, mysterious and a little offbeat.
