About the Author

Jim Carpenter is an author and illustrator living in the UK who, despite the name, is not much of a carpenter at all. In fact, holding a wooden pencil to write and draw with is as close to carpentry as it gets for him. He is, however, an avid and incessant daydreamer and when the opportunity strikes, and with wooden pencil in hand, he likes to turn any of the interesting daydreams into stories like this one.
