About the Author

Jan Paul Schutten has been writing children's nonfiction books since 2003. His books are popular and critically acclaimed; he has won several awards including the Gouden Griffel (Golden Stylus) for his book Children of Amsterdam.

Arie van 't Riet is a Dutch artist and medical physicist who uses X-ray equipment to create "bioramas"-X-ray portraits of animals and plants. While teaching the physics of radiation and radiation safety, he became interested in the application of low-energy X-rays to capture delicate objects. Arie van 't Riet is "inspired by the unbelievable beauty of nature... and its wonderful complexity."
