About the Author

Rachelle has always loved to travel. If she can't go somewhere, her imagination is a great travel agent! She is a mom, a teacher, a photographer and a life-long storyteller (but not the kind of stories that are fibs). While in primary and secondary school, Rachelle often read books, or doodled and sketched out stories whenever she had free time. She went on to study journalism, creative writing, and education. Now that her studies are done, she is enjoying writing stories to share.

Thai is a Vietnam-based illustrator. After studying in Media Design (2019), Thai worked as a 3D game artist for a short time. Though it was an environment full of energy and challenge, Thai desired to do something to freely explore creativity and inspiration. "That's why I turned to another direction to become an Illustrator," Thai says. "Drawing is a better medium for me to tell diverse and personal stories. I love working with children's materials, storytelling, fabric and paper design, vibrant colors, rocks and dragonflies. I also enjoy spooky things every once in a while."
