About the Author

James Turner is an award-winning cartoonist, illustrator and comic writer with five published graphic novels and a weekly strip in The Phoenix. Steve May has been a life-long doodler, studying fine art and film making in Nottingham and Animation at the Royal College of Art. Steve's scratchy spontaneous illustration style made him the perfect partner for Puffin's best-selling Dennis the Menace fiction series, Harry Hill's Matt Mills series and Francesca Simon's Terrible Viking books. He has also been happily immersed in a world of burps, beards and bogeys as part of his collaboration with Gareth Jones on the Pet Defenders series.
