Cindy Williams Schrauben lives in Michigan where she writes books for kids that range from the truly serious to the seriously silly. Before embarking on this path, Cindy held positions as a teacher, administrator, and more. She loves sharing the message that 'It's never too late to dream!' When not writing, working with other authors, or honing her craft, Cindy might be found dissecting her grandsons' shenanigans for story ideas, reading on the floor in the bookstore, or eating ice cream...ideally all at once.

Julia Seal knew from the age of five what she wanted to do for a living--draw pictures! After graduating with a degree in Graphic Design and then working in the greeting card industry (and getting covered in glitter every day!) she finally moved onto her dream job, illustrating children's books. She lives in a small village in England with her husband and two children, who provide plenty of inspiration!
