About the Author
Jonathan Emmett is a popular children's author. His books have won several awards including the Red House Children's Book Award for Pigs Might Fly and the Kiekeboekprijs for Bringing Down the Moon. Elys grew up in a part of Sussex that consists almost entirely of trees and cows and she was named after a department store in Wimbledon. She's never let either of these things hold her back and Elys recently graduated with distinction from the MA in Children's Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art. Since then, Elys has created the hilarious picture books Weasels and Nuts In Space and been nominated by several major prizes, including the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, the Waterstones Prize, and the Kate Greenaway Medal. Based in Cambridge, when Elys is not drawing she grows cacti, collects pocket watches and spends altogether too much time in the company of other illustrators.
