Kirsten Mayer has written several books for children, including Game of Gnomes and Go BIG or Go Gnome! Yenna Mariana is an illustrator based in Jakarta who discovered her love for art at four years old, doodling in her schoolbooks. After earning a bachelor of arts in illustration and animation in 2017, she now focuses on drawing children's books and enjoys using vibrant colors in her digital work. Taylor Swift's songs have been a constant companion through Yenna's high school years, college, and her creative career. Having attended the Red Tour in 2014 and the Eras Tour a decade later, she describes working on this picture book as her "wildest dreams" come true.
