Amy and Alison Young are a married team who have been creating projects together since their awkward teenage years. After earning a degree in animation from the Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design, Alison uses it to draw silly pictures for her two comic blogs, while Amy uses her literary degree from Metropolitan State University in Denver to write silly words.
Mustache Duckstache is their debut picture book, written both for children and for anyone sporting the hairiest of handlebars or the bushiest of beards. You can find Amy and Alison at various comic conventions hawking their whimsical wares and making people laugh. Their sophomore picture book is Blake the Snake Bakes a Cake.
