About the Author
Beverley McWilliams is a children's author from South Australia with a passion for historical fiction. Her debut picture book Born to Fly published by MidnightSun Publishing was a CBCA notable book. Beverley has published two middle-grade historical novels with Pantera Press: The Reindeer and the Submarine (2022) and Spies in the Sky (2023). Beverley is the event coordinator for the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (South Australia).
Helene Magisson is a critically acclaimed French-Australian illustrator of many books for children. Before Helene turned to book illustration, she was a painting restorer in Paris, where she was also trained in the art of medieval illumination. Helene's children's books are widely known and loved across the world. Her timeless style lends itself beautifully to classics, such as The Velveteen Rabbit (New Frontier, 2021), and also universal contemporary stories, such as Before You Were Born (HarperCollins, 2020). Helene is frequently recognised by the Children's Book Council of Australia. Most recently, she was awarded the CBCA 2020 Notable Picture Book of the Year Award for Little Puggle's Song, written by Vikki Conley
