Jodi Toering was born in the Mallee, at Hopetoun, and grew up on a wheat farm outside a small town called Beulah. Jodi now juggles the roles of full-time teacher, mother, performer and author in Creswick, near Ballarat. Her first picture book, Mallee Sky (Walker Books), was an Honour Book in the 2020 CBCA Picture Book of the Year Awards.

Valerie Brumby was born in Alice Springs and grew up in Areyonga.

She now lives in Mutitjulu with her family and is one of the core artists at Walkatjara Art. As a tour guide, she also teaches about Anangu culture to the region’s visitors. Valerie loves to paint the purple Parakeelya desert flowers often found in season around the three sacred sites: Uluṟu, Kata-Tjuța and Attila (Mt. Conner).
