About the author
Sherry West began drawing as a young child and spent most of her free time in the children’s section of the library pouring over every illustrated fairytale she could get her little hands on and drawing lots of princesses—with the desire to become a book illustrator. She just never figured on becoming an author, as well. She currently has several coloring books and children’s books in the works, designs greeting cards and paper dolls, and creates hammered wire jewelry. Her artwork has appeared in printed publications and online. She is also a photographer whose work has been accepted by Getty Images, and is a current member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators. Sherry currently resides in Peru, Indiana. Larkin Stephens-Avery knew she wanted to create art since she was a little girl. She struggled in the normal classroom setting because of her dyslexia but flourished in the art room. She is currently pursuing a major in Fine Arts and a minor in Environmental and Earth Science at Indiana University. She loves spending time with her family and friends and hanging out with her six pet chickens.Larkin Stephens-Avery knew she wanted to create art since she was a little girl.
