About the Author
Karla Clark wanted to be an author when she was a child…then she wanted to be an artist. She feels blessed to be working as both as an adult. Karla has written novels, short stories, and numerous picture books. She lives in Rockford, Illinois, with her husband and son. When not writing, she is busy creating decoupage collages and digital art that she sells online and at art shows.
Thaís Mesquita is a Brazilian author-illustrator based in Germany. She grew up in a family of artists in a small town filled with bright colors and lush nature, where birthdays were celebrated with new crayons, colored paper, and endless art supplies. Thaís moved to Germany to pursue an M.F.A. in Media Art and Design. Since then, she has worked on books, animation, and even several educational projects for the United Nations. She especially loves illustrating eerie stories, folktales, adventures across whimsical worlds, and, of course, exuberant nature.
