About The Author
Anna Battese
Anna Battese lives in Naarm-Melbourne with her two girls, a well-meaning if wild pair of puppies and an imaginary octopus named Hans Gruber. Once a marine biologist, she now spends her days writing children’s stories full of adventure, whimsy and the occasional catastrophe. Like Odie, Anna feels very nervous about a lot of things.
The Grey Beret’s Guide to Surviving the Odds is Anna’s first middle grade novel.
Erin Reeves lives in Gadigal-Sydney with her boyfriend and their ever-expanding record collection. She owns a cocktail bar called Jangling Jack’s, which is about as fun as it sounds. She loves reading, punk rock, a dangerously sharp pencil and afternoon naps. Her favourite thing to do is draw, and she pinches herself that she gets to draw all day, every day. Like Baby, Erin often finds herself in sticky situations and doesn’t mind that at all.
