About the Author
Jane Newberry’s unique insight into very young children began as a puppeteer at children’s parties. She then taught music to Early Years groups for 25 years, garnering and creating a portfolio of rhymes and songs for creative play. Her previous collection, Big Green Crocodile, was a great success and prompted many requests for more. Jane’s work with children in her local library keeps her very much up-to-date with what they like and enjoy. She lives in Cornwall.
Carolina Rabei grew up in Moldova, and gained a BA in Graphic Art there, and a distinction in Children’s Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art. Her debut book was an illustrated edition of Walter de la Mare’s poem Snow. She has also written Little Lost Fox (2020) and illustrated Jane Newberry’s previous activity rhyme collection, Big Green Crocodile as well as Binky’s Time to Fly by Sharmila Collins. She lives in Cambridge, England.
