Wee Granny's Magic Bag

Elizabeth McKay is from Dalry in Ayrshire, Scotland. She has had around 300 stories and articles published. She works part time at a day-centre for adults with learning disabilities. Having seven nieces and nephews (and now great nieces and nephews) has provided her with the perfect excuse to read lots of children's books. Maria Bogade studied Audiovisual Media at the University of Stuttgart, Germany before starting work as a 3D animation artist. She worked mainly for Studio Soi on award-winning projects like The Gruffalo. Her passion for creating her own unique images, characters and environments led her towards illustration. She currently lives with her partner and two children in Sweden.

It's all in the bag … What she can pull out of the bag defies reason, and that's the source of the fun.'-- The School Librarian'Bogade’s illustrations have a merriness to them, filled with bright colors and playing up the effect of pulling huge items from a small bag..'-- Waking Brain Cells blog'My daughter thinks this story is hilarious and even though she knows what is in Wee Granny’s bag she laughs out loud every time we read it’'-- Story Snug blog
