Author Bio
Karen Wallace is an award-winning author of children's books for all ages. Her Goose Pimple Bay Sagas was a World Book Day recommended read in 2008 and Li Fu's Great Aim was chosen for the 2008 Boys into Books Promotion. Karen has also created the popular Alice the Anteater books. Ellie O'Shea is a coffee addict, an avid snowboarder and bad joke teller. She completed her degree in Illustration in Plymouth and is now living in Worcester with her (equally bad joke-telling) boyfriend. They love lazy Sundays and watching cartoons all day, which are her biggest inspiration for drawing. She has always loved watching cartoons and when she was around 8 she decided, 'Hey, I want to draw like that!'. So she picked up her pencil, and here she is.
