About the Author

Peta James grew up in rural Australia, and as a child her friends were the family cows, dogs, cats and chickens. Now that she's (sort of) an adult, she writes stories about animals and their adventures. Peta can't go for a walk without stopping to say hello to every dog and cat she meets - because animals are people too! Lucy the Sheep Dog is Peta's first children's book

Maia Batumashvili was born in Tiblisi, Georgia in 1978. Since a young age, Maia has loved to draw and is inspired by the children's books and cartoons she grew up with. After graduating from two art institutes, Maia worked on an animation project before finally realising her dream of illustrating children's books. When Maia is not creating imaginative worlds, she enjoys spending time with her three beautiful children and her dog, Tayo.
