AUTHOR BIO

Mark Huffman's interests include cheese and cryptozoology. He's particularly fond of Red Leicester (pronounced "Lester") and mokele-mbembe (pronounced as spelled). He wrote another children's book called The Toot Fairy. He lives in Texas.

ILLUSTRATOR BIO

Dawn Davidson is a freelance artist in Winter Garden, Florida. A lover of great children's literature, she is inspired by the classical illustrators of the past, and strives to achieve a sense of timelessness by mimicking traditional media in her digital work. Combining classical drawing skill, vibrant color use, and a sense of playful whimsy to create memorable characters and humorous compositions, she enjoys nothing more than to bring a story to life through beautiful, engaging art. She loves family, travel, celtic mythology, period and fantasy costuming, and dreaming of retiring to a mountain cottage in a state that has seasons.

PRAISE

-Ed Townley, President, Cabot Cheese, Holder of More Than 150 International Cheese Awards
