About the Author

Eric Geron (pronounced: jur-ON) is the author of Poultrygeist, illustrated by Pete Oswald, and the forthcoming young adult novel A Tale of Two Princes. Under his pseudonym Rico Green, he also wrote the New York Times-bestselling Disney Descendants novelization. He is delighted to present Bye Bye, Binary as his debut board book. Originally from Summit, New Jersey, Eric earned a creative writing degree from the University of Miami and spent many years as a children's book editor, acquiring numerous New York Times bestsellers before deciding to pursue his passion for writing full-time. He now lives in New York City, where he actively avoids gender reveal parties. Learn more about him at EricGeron.com and on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook @EricGeron. Charlene Chua (pronounced: CHOO-ah) has illustrated many things over the years for kids of all ages. Her illustration work has won several awards, while books she has illustrated have been nominated for OLA Forest of Reading, USBBY Outstanding International Books, OLA Best Bets, Shining Willow Award, and Kirkus Best books. Charlene was born and grew up in Singapore, and moved to Canada in 2007. They started work in 1998 as a web designer, and went on to become a senior designer, web producer and interactive project manager. However, what they really wanted to do was draw pictures all day. In 2003, they decided to give it a go, and after a few years, they became a full-time illustrator. When she is not making art, she enjoys cooking, reading, and playing with her cats. She now lives with her husband (and cats!) in Hamilton, Ontario.
