About The Author
Nancy Dickmann
Nancy Dickmann grew up in the USA, but she has now lived in England long enough to think that cold and rain are normal. She is an experienced children’s non-fiction writer, a Mastermind champion, and a classically trained pianist who now teaches piano to children and dabbles in cello, guitar and ukulele. Nancy is based in Oxfordshire.
Lucy Banaji is an illustrator from London who trained in painting but now mixes traditional materials and digital artwork. She is inspired by being in the wilderness, bivvying under the stars, bustling cities, old bookshops, other people’s illustrations and art, little people (especially since she grew her own little person) and lots of cake and coffee.
