Dani Vee is the host of the popular literary podcast Words and Nerds where she chats to authors about writing and books. An English educator and a bookworm from birth, don't even get her started on her favorite book, Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray! Dani is most content with a blanket, camomile tea, plenty of dark chocolate and a book! She is terrible with directions, can never keep her brain still and loves a good laugh. She knows two chords on her guitar and hopes that one day she'll have time to learn a third. Dani's debut book My EXTRAordinary Mom was released in 2022. Marina Verola's first title for Larrikin House was Meowster Chef. Marina loves to illustrate with humor and emotion and says that her daughter is her greatest inspiration and her husband, her greatest supporter.
