About the contributors
Author:
Emily Sharratt is an editor and writer of children's books, such as the Ellie's War series for Scholastic. Emily lives in London with her baby daughter, the highlight of whose week during lockdown was the Thursday night 8pm clap for the careers. Unfortunately she can't tell the time yet so they were usually out on the street with their xylophone and wooden spoons from 7.30 pm onwards.
Illustrator:
Freya Hartas is a UK based illustrator specialising in children’s books. She lives in the vibrant city of Bristol with her partner and their ancient black cat Katsu and works from her cosy, cluttered desk in a shared studio down the road. She graduated from Falmouth University with a first-class honours in BA Illustration in 2014. Freya loves to conjure up humorous characters, animals and monsters, creating the most fantastical worlds for them to inhabit and get lost in. Her first title with Magic Cat, Slow Down, was an instant hit around the world, selling in more than 16 languages.
