Liz Garton Scanlon is the author of many children's picture books, including the Caldecott Honor Book All the World and Happy Birthday, Bunny, which Publishers Weekly called "as memorable and heartfelt as a birthday book gets." Liz lives in breezy, beautiful Austin, Texas, with her husband and her two daughters, who all love flying kites.

Stephanie Graegin spent her childhood drawing and collecting fauna in Fort Wayne, Indiana and Houston, Texas.

She received her BFA in Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art and her MFA in Printmaking from the Pratt Institute.

Stephanie now lives in Brooklyn, is still drawing, and has managed to keep her collection down to one orange cat.
