Margaret Aitken is a Scottish writer for children. As a child, she could often be found outside hoping to stumble upon the characters of Brambly Hedge and Beatrix Potter. After studying medicine at the University of Glasgow, she worked as a doctor in the village of Doune, a filming location for Outlander and Game of Thrones. Along with her husband and three sons, Margaret is currently enjoying life in a New England-style farmhouse in Maine. When she isn't writing she can mostly be found at the beach, in the garden, or baking something gluten-free. Old Friends is her debut picture book.
Lenny Wen was born and raised in Indonesia. She currently lives in the countryside of Austria with her husband, two stepchildren, and her assistant, a Shiba Inu called Aiki. Since she was a kid, Lenny's loved storytelling and drawing. When she's not illustrating, she may be found staring at trees, reading books, contemplating story ideas, or hugging her dog.
