Tom spends his days finding fun ways of communicating facts, new and old, to all age groups and reading abilities. Tom lives in Bristol, England, with his wife and three children. He studied zoology at Bristol University and has had spells working at zoos. Tom has also worked as a conservationist, which saw him planting trees in Somerset, surveying Vietnamese jungle and rescuing wildlife from drought-ridden Zimbabwe.

After earning her master's degree in Illustration from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, Rea is now working as a freelance Illustrator of children-related illustrations. She loves drawing these, as she can observe the world in a kid's way purely, which can always bring her fun, peace, and joy. She lives with her husband, baby girl, two cats, and dogs in Beijing, China.
