About the Author

They say to 'write what you know', so as Matthew Long spends a lot of time accidentally falling into new worlds and riding walruses, trying to find a way home, he writes about things like that. Matthew has a degree in Film, obtained in Cornwall, England.

Marlene Gerlyng wanted to be an illustrator from an early age when she read folktales while growing up in Norway. She taught art at foundation level in Norway and ran art courses for young children. Following this, Marlene gained an MA in Children's Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art.
