Author Bio

Marleen Lammers is a writer with a huge passion for children's literature. She is a bit of an accidental nomad; she grew up in the Netherlands, but has been doing the expat thing for almost twenty years. She has spent most of that time in various countries in Southern Africa, working with nonprofits, and co-founding a couple of travel companies. She now travels between South Africa, the UK and Cyprus with her partner and two sons, and mostly tries to avoid cold weather. She's happiest when writing fun children's stories, preferably in the sun, preferably barefoot. Marleen can be contacted on Facebook: marleenlammersauthor and Instagram: @marleen.lammers/

Ian Smith was born and raised in a little village in the West Midlands. While growing up, he spent much of his time playing in the mud with his plastic dinosaurs, reading about dinosaurs or chasing his little sisters while pretending to be a dinosaur. But even more than dinosaurs, he loved to draw. With a box of crayons, he could be happy for hours in fact, some of his best work has been in crayon on his mum's walls! He always knew he wanted to be an artist (or a dinosaur!) When he got a bit older and the house had run out of walls for him to scribble on, he moved to Bristol to study for a BA in illustration at the University of the West of England. Since then, he's continued to draw and write funny stories, creating characters like the ones that had fired his imagination as a child, and before he knew it, he'd turned into an illustrator (and not a dinosaur after all).
