Sam Watkins voraciously consumed books from a young age, due to a food shortage in the village where she grew up. This diet, although not recommended by doctors, has given her a lifelong passion for books. She has been a bookseller, editor, and publisher, and writes and illustrates her own children's books. At one point, things all got a bit too bookish so she decided to be an art teacher for a while, but books won the day in the end.
She has a five-year-old son, a yellow camper van called Daphne and six stick insects called Sticky. She can sometimes be found dangling from rocks or strumming her guitar at a campfire and singing silly songs about cockatoos.
David O'Connell is a writer and illustrator living in London, UK. His favourite things to draw are monsters, naughty children (another type of monster), batty old ladies and evil cats! See his website scribblehound.com for more. He loves comics too, and has had work published in anthologies such as Birdsong, Solipsistic Pop, Paper Science a
