Adah Nuchi grew up in New York City and spent her summers at camp, where she learned (almost) everything she needed to know about being a woman. She worked for many years as a children's book editor, and now divides her time between writing and going on adventures, which mostly occur on the beach. Meg Hunt is an illustrator and maker of things. When she's not reading, exploring, or learning, Meg is discovering the world through her illustrations. She lives and works in Portland, Oregon.
