About the Author
Richard O'Neill is an award winning storyteller and author brought up in a nomadic Romani community in the north East of England. He has a keen interest in ecology, recycling and traditional crafts. Michelle Russell, a former Early Years Teacher and bus driver, is an author and illustrator, based in Cumberland & Westmorland (formerly known as Cumbria). She can trace her paternal Travelling Showman heritage back several generations, that brought all the fun of the fair to communities in the north West and English Scottish Borders. While her maternal heritage links back to the Reivers and coal miners. Jade Van Der Zalm is an illustrator from the Netherlands. She studied Communication and Multimedia Design where she learned she loved illustrating and telling stories. Jade draws her inspiration from the shapes and colours of nature and always tries to find a way to let the illustration speak for itself. Aside from illustrating she loves to play with her two fluffy cats, take lots of pictures to use as inspiration or cook (and eat) some good food.
