About The Author

Pauline Thompson

Her love of popular science is the fuel for her stories. She can form her tongue into a cloverleaf shape (but can’t whistle to save her life!). In her spare time, Pauline facilitates writing workshops for Writers Collective of Canada. This is her debut picture book.
