About the Author

Emily Bone grew up among the rolling hills of Hampshire, writing stories about the ants and birds in her garden. After studying English at Cambridge, she found her dream job at Usborne in 2007. Since then, she's written about many weird and wonderful creatures, along with books on space, fashion and food. As a television sportscaster in Fresno, California, Dan Taylor extensively covered the Fresno State Bulldogs. In addition to covering Super Bowls, All-Star games, the Indianapolis 500, and major professional golf championships, Taylor has handled venue announcing for a variety of major motor sports events. This is his first book.
