Biographical note

Nicky Benson was born and raised in Chicago. She studied Communication at Northern Illinois University where she met her husband, Brad. Nothing makes Nicky happier than spending time with family and friends, rummaging through a flea market, and cuddling in a book nook with her son, Drew. She now lives in St Charles, not far from her hometown of Chicago. Jonny grew up knowing he wanted to be an artist of some sort. Encouraged by his grandfather and, later, his art tutor at the Reigate School of Art and Design, Jonny is now an internationally-published author and illustrator, children's book designer and paper engineer. He lives with his family and a menagerie of animals near Horsham, West Sussex.
