Maggie Fischer is originally from Oregon, but now lives in Seattle, Washington, after receiving her B.A. in English from Gonzaga University. The daughter of a children’s librarian, Maggie has grown up surrounded by books and feels impossibly lucky to write and edit books for kids. She spends her time trying not to get worried about the increasing number of crows in her backyard, petting her enormous cat, Finch, and drinking more coffee than is probably healthy.

Pamela Barbieri is a freelance illustrator based in a small city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. During the past six years, she has collaborated with several Argentinian as well as foreign publishers. Her illustrations are packed with fun and colorful characters, specifically the giant “search and find” pieces that she really enjoys creating. She also loves to draw outdoor scenes, all kinds of cute animals, and (of course!) playful kids. Music and fruit flavored teas are a must during working hours.
