Emma Shevah is Thai and Irish (which probably makes her Thairish), and was born and raised in London. She lives in Brighton with half of her four children, their speedy tortoise and a kamikaze hamster. Emma runs the Literary Club at New York University in London and teaches English at Francis Holland School. She is the author of the Bloomsbury Young Reader Hello, Baby Mo!, as well as middle-grade novels including Dream On, Amber and How to Save the World with a Chicken and an Egg.Izzy Evans is an illustrator from North London. They spent most of their childhood trying to avoid doing math homework by doodling unicorns in the margins of textbooks. Eventually deciding that if they were going to spend so much time drawing, it might be fun to try and do it for a living.
