About the Author
Angela Casabene lives on Bunurong Country in a beachside suburb in Melbourne. When she's not sitting in her Storytelling Chair reading books to young humans, she can be found in her favourite cafe, claiming the 'Community Bookshelf' was her idea, and her idea alone. Angela's world has always been filled with stories and books; she still has the pink and cream exercise book her dad taught her to write in when she was four years old. Now, Angela mostly writes on her laptop at the caf, where she creates stories for kids of all ages.
Hilary Jean Tapper is a New Zealand based illustrator who creates picture books, works as a creative arts therapist, lecturer and researcher, and facilitates creative arts workshops. She is inspired by the living world, poetry, dance, philosophy and meditation. Hilary works with watercolour, ink and pencil, and loves to draw children and nature.
