Tilly Temple grew up surrounded by animals on a beautiful farm in rural Oxfordshire, and now lives in London with her cat, Oscar. When she's not writing children's books, she can usually be found doing yoga in a London park. A Derbyshire lad born and bred, Sean Julian studied at the Mansfield College of Art and then moved to Bristol to study Illustration. He still lives in Bristol with his girlfriend; two goldfish, a love of cake, and a dream to one day get some chickens, too.
