Chrissie Sains grew up in Billericay, Essex, where she spent her childhood seeking adventure and finding trouble. Described by her teachers as having a “lively imagination”, Chrissie's escapades include her attempted rescue of the school's pet fish and the discovery of a dead body in a field that turned out to be two tyres under a sheet. She has swum with sharks, scuba-dived shipwrecks and sky-dived from a plane. Chrissie has a background in marketing and events but now writes full time and is a graduate of the Golden Egg Academy and a member of SCBWI. Along with the Jam Factory books, she is the co-author of I Got This, with Cara Mailey. Jenny Taylor is an illustrator and graphic designer. Drawing stories since 1997, when she first discovered what pencils and paints could really do, she finally achieved her childhood dream with these books about aliens and jam. When not drawing, Jenny enjoys long walks in the shade with her ginger companion, “attempting” new and complicated recipes or watching her favourite animated movies. You can find more of Jenny’s work at www.jennytaylordesign.com and on Instagram @jennytaylordraws

This is such a glorious series. Chrissie Sains’ texts and Jenny Taylor’s artwork are a match made in heaven.
