About the Author

Larry Hayes is easily distracted. So when he’s not writing books for children he can be found working as an investment fund manager and the trustee for a homeless charity. In the future he hopes to become a treasure hunter, private investigator, inventor of a yoghurt that makes you happy, Olympic croquet medallist and the person who solves the maths behind the human brain. Larry’s debut fiction book for children, How to Survive Without Grown-Ups, was published by Simon & Schuster in 2021.

Joelle Dreidemy was born in Saint-Avold in France. She gained a diploma in Strasbourg in 2002 and a diploma from the famous Emile Cohl School in Lyon in 2004. Joëlle lives and works in Paris, producing illustrations for magazines and children's books.
