Elli Woollard writes picture books, poems and other things (most of them silly). She lives with her four wonderful children, her meteorologist husband, and two guinea pigs in London. She does not live with a cat, although the neighbors seem to think otherwise.
Benji Davies is the author and illustrator of The Storm Whale and the illustrator of Big Friends by Linda Sarah and Goodnight Already! by Jory John. As a child, Benji was often found painting at the kitchen table . . . a habit he has continued into adulthood. He lives in London with his wife, Nina.
"The cadence of the lines dances on the pages, perfectly playing off the old "Fee Fi Fo Fum" rhymes with eloquence and aplomb. Fully embracing the spirit of the enterprise, Davies has a great deal of fun with the images . . . A merry old tale that's No. 1!" ―Kirkus Reviews, starred review, on The Giant of Jum
"A charming marriage of text and art, this book will stand up to repeated presentations again and again. An excellent read-aloud for class visits as well as a lovely bedtime story recommendation." ―School Library Journal on The Giant of Jum
"Excellent, believable advice, with boxes―what could be better than that?" ―Kirkus Reviews on Big Friends
"Sarah captures the joys and pain of a camaraderie that seems exquisitely perfect―until it isn't. . . . Davies makes the story sing from beginning to end with lovely drawings that feel sturdy and resolutely optimistic, even when Birt is at his lowest." ―Publishers Weekly on Big Friends
"An understated, profoundly charming little fable." ―The Financial Times on The Storm Whale
"Simple but powerful. . . The world may still be as big and lonely and incomprehensible as the ocean, but still it's possible to find tremendous, heart-stopping tenderness." ―The New York Times on The Storm Whale
"With its windblown illustrations and gratifying arc, The Storm Whale would be wonderful to read in the safe harbor of bedtime." ―The Wall Street Journal on The Storm Whale
