Biographical note

Zanna Davidson (Author)
Zanna writes fiction and non-fiction for Usborne. Her favourite things to write about are small monsters and talking animals. She used to live in London but now lives in a cottage on the edge of some woods. She is only sorry there are no bears or witches in them.

Alison Friend (Illustrator)
Alison has loved painting and drawing for as long as she can remember. Animals were always a favourite subject, and as a child she copied them obsessively from wildlife books and encyclopaedias.
Alison now lives in the beautiful Lake District. In her spare time she enjoys walking her dog in the fells, swimming in the lakes (when it's warm!) and falling asleep during really good films!
