Drew Daywalt

Drew Daywalt was amazed at the age of seven, while sitting in the movie theater watching the credits roll on the original Star Wars, to see for the first time that people actually MADE movies. They weren’t just found items like mountains or rivers or clouds. That night, at story time with his mom, Charlene, he noticed there were names of people on the front of books, too. That’s when he learned about authors and writers. And he never looked back. Drew is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Day the Crayons Quit, all of its sequels, and many other titles, including The Legend of Rock, Paper, Scissors; Little Freddie Two Pants; and the middle grade novel They Call Me No Sam! illustrated by Mike Lowery. Drew lives in California with his wife, two kids, two dogs, two goldfish, a cat, and some local raccoons who like pizza crusts.

Oliver Jeffers makes art and tells stories. His books include How to Catch a Star; Lost and Found, which was the recipient of the prestigious Nestle Children's Book Prize Gold Award in the UK and was later adapted into an award-winning animated film; and the New York Times bestsellers Here We Are, What We'll Build, Stuck, This Moose Belongs to Me, and Once Upon an Alphabet. He is also, of course, the illustrator of the #1 smash hit Crayons series, written by Drew Daywalt. His fine art is world-renowned and his dip-art exhibitions are much sought-after events. Originally from Belfast, Northern Ireland, Oliver now splits his time between Belfast and Brooklyn, New York.
