Carron Brown (Author) Carron Brown has worked in books since she graduated from university, but even as a child she wrote and illustrated her own diary. Growing up in the Highlands of Scotland with a view of both mountains and the sea from her bedroom window, she wrote and illustrated her own guidebooks to the wildlife she saw and spent a lot of time in the woods looking for beetles. She now edits, writes and indexes a great variety of non-fiction titles, and is always learning something new. Ma Pe (Illustrator) Ma Pe is an Italian cartoonist and illustrator. She started drawing as a child and although she tried to devote herself to other things, the love for drawing was too strong. She loves cats (for now she only has two, but there are always more) and flowers, and both elements are never missing from her illustrations. Although she always wears black, she has an inordinate passion for pink.
