As a child, Julie was always telling tales. Not the 'she ate all the cake not me' kind but wildly exaggerated tales of everyday events. Julie still loves telling stories and is now the bestselling author of more than 100 books for children of all ages and is published around the world. She lives in Cornwall with her family, two energetic sprollies and a white wolf - cunningly disguised as a dog. When she's not writing she likes eating cake, reading and walking, often at the same time.

Emily Jones grew up in Tyneside in the '80s where the best form of entertainment was found at the local library. Staring at the illustrations in picture books started a lifelong passion for children's publishing. Emily now lives in Cardiff with her partner and two dogs - The English and Staffordshire Bull Terrors.
