About the Author

Lauren Fairgrieve (Author)
Lauren Fairgrieve is a children's book writer and editor who grew up in rural East Lothian, Scotland, and now lives in North London. She can often be found roaming Hampstead Heath or exploring a new part of the city, and is very proud and grateful to be able to edit and write fascinating children's non-fiction for a living.

Anja SuΕ‘anj (Illustrator)
Anja was born in the small coastal city of Rijeka, Croatia, where she currently lives and works as a full-time illustrator. After having studied animation in Zagreb, she got an MA in illustration at the University of the Arts London. She also works as an assistant lecturer in Illustration at the University of Applied Arts in Rijeka. Whimsical and peculiar stories and characters are a great source of inspiration to her, especially those from Slavic lore, as well as nature in general and its many storytelling qualities.
