About the Author

Bethany V. Freitas is the author of Not Yet, Yeti illustrated by Maddie Frost, a story about having a growth mindset at school. She lives in Massachusetts with her husband and two kids, one of whom started kindergarten while she wrote this book. (He was ready!) Maddie Frost creates her illustrations by making handmade textured and patterned swatches with materials like watercolour paint, crayon, pencils, and even kitchen spices! She scans the swatches into Photoshop and digitally cuts the shapes she needs to make something. Her final images can consist of anywhere from fifty to five hundred pieces that are all layered together. Maddie lives in Arlington, Massachusetts, with her husband.
