Ben Lerwill

Ben Lerwill has been working as a freelance travel writer for over 15 years. His work has appeared in more than 50 national and international publications, from The Sunday Times to National Geographic Traveller. Ben's passions include the outdoors, music, wildlife, running and reading. He is thrilled that, through children's books, he can share his enthusiasm about the wider world with young readers. He's at his happiest when he's on a long walk and his children haven't yet pinched all the snacks.

Daniel Long is an illustrator based in Norfolk, England, who has been working there since he graduated from college in 2014. His work is heavily influenced by the natural world, whether that be the dinosaurs of the Jurassic period, spider monkeys and jaguars in the Amazon Rainforest, or the kingfishers and otters of his local Norfolk Broads. When not illustrating, Daniel can be found procrastinating, playing guitar, or exploring the coastline with his dog Hendrix.
