Laya Steinberg is a writer, illustrator and graphic designer originally from Ottawa, Canada. She draws inspiration from her two children: "They've given me the opportunity to revisit the joys of childhood which I try to capture in words and images." Debbie Harter has illustrated over 20 books for Barefoot, including the beloved Bear series and several singalongs. As a child, Debbie would lose herself in books (as long as they had pictures) and hopes to continue doing so until she is very old.
