About the author

Dr. Alison Greenwood is a psychologist who worked for many years within the NHS. Frustrated by the scarcity of mental health provision and on realising how effective nature-led therapies could be to address a variety of mental health conditions, she set up the charity Dose of Nature, to offer ecotheraputic treatments and wellbeing workshops for all ages. It swiftly became a go-to resource for GPs and psychiatrists referring patients from within the NHS, and offers a range of courses and workshops for adults and young people. A Little Dose of Nature is her first children's book. Anneli Bray is an illustrator, artist and maker based in the North West of England. From an early age you could find her painting stories about animals and other magical creatures, making books about ponies and reading voraciously. Since then she has graduated with a First in Illustration, been a bookseller and travelled to the other side of the world (and back again). Anneli has continued to illustrate stories and characters influenced by her love of wonder, belonging and adventure, including The Last Garden (Hachette, 2020) and True Stories of Animal Heroes: Onyx (Frances Lincoln Children's Books, 2021).
