Biographical note

Simon lives on the south coast of England, although he occasionally leaves to buy milk. After gaining a 1st class degree in History at Exeter University, he became a barman, grew tired of the owner calling him Andy, left in order to fail a Primary PGCE, then finally stumbled upon writing (sometimes award-winning) books. Born in Hong Kong, Dawn Lo is an illustrator currently based in Vancouver, unceded lands of the Squamish, Musqueam, and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations. Her work has appeared in picture books, stationery, greeting cards, public art installations, murals and more! Most of her work is inspired by little, everyday moments and personal multicultural experiences. When she is not drawing at her home studio, she works at the public library where she can surround herself with more books.
