About the Author

Johanna Bell is the author of eight children's picture books and a verse novel for adults. She has won multiple literary awards, including the CBCA Book of the Year, the Environment Award for Children's Literature and the Tasmanian Literary Award for Writing for Young Readers and Children.

Amelia Luscombe is a visual artist based in Rubibi (Broome), Western Australia. Growing up on a bush block and working in galleries across the Kimberley and the Top End has informed her art practice, which is inextricably linked to day-to-day life and local landscapes. Amelia majored in printmaking and drawing at Curtin University and continues to create using these mediums while playing with mural painting, textiles and ceramics. What's that Splat? is her second picture book.
