About the Author
James Sellick is an award-winning children's author and creative director from London. His debut story, There's a Rang-tan in my Bedroom, brought the horrible truth about palm oil to the surface. His follow-up story, There's a Jag-wah in my Kitchen, exposed the dangerous world of industrial meat. Now, as we finally emerge from the pandemic, James wants to help children better understand the complexities of their emotions, whilst keeping them entertained at the same time. He hopes his new 'Dealing with Feeling' series with publisher New Frontier will do exactly that, starting with managing anger, coping with loss and sticking together in the face of fear.
Craig Shuttlewood is a children's book illustrator who likes colouring in, mountain biking, being near the sea and writing stories. His doodles have helped make over 20 books, several of which have won awards. Craig lives in Brighton, UK, with his wife and two small people called children.
