About the Author

Lula Bell lives in the countryside so she can see the stars better. When not busy scribbling ideas for her stories, she makes obstacle courses for the squirrels in her garden. Stephen lives in a small town in the North of England with his family. He has lots of varied interests from gardening to rock-pooling in the summer with his kids. He went to university in Newcastle, where he planned to study dentistry but instead chose to follow his dreams of becoming a children's illustrator.
