John Feierabend

John M. Feierabend, PhD, has spent decades compiling songs and rhymes from the memories of the American people in hopes that these treasures will be preserved for future generations. He is a leading authority on child development in music and movement and served as Professor and Chair of the Music Education Department of the Hartt School of the University of Hartford. Gabriella Geida graduated summa cum laude with honors from the University of Hartford. She double majored in illustration and graphic design with a minor in art history. She currently resides in the small town of Colchester, Connecticut, where when she isn't doing art, she enjoys reading, appreciating cinema, doing yoga, and all things outdoors. The animals in her book were inspired by the ones on the farm where she works.
