About the Author

Anna Dewdney wrote Llama Llama Red Pajama for her own little llamas (her two daughters) when they were young girls. Now they are grown, and the bestselling Llama Llama series continues to comfort and entertain new generations of children. Anna was a strong proponent of reading aloud to children, but she also loved to see how excited they were when they could begin to read on their own.
