Kate Banks is the author of many books for children, among them Maxâs Words,And If the Moon Could Talk, winner of the Boston GlobeâHorn Book Award, andThe Night Worker, winner of the Charlotte Zolotow Award. She grew up in Maine, where she and her two sisters and brother spent a lot of time outdoors, and where Banks developed an early love of reading. âI especially liked picture books,â she says, âand the way in which words and illustrations could create a whole new world in which sometimes real and other times magical and unexpected things could happen.â Banks attended Wellesley College and received her masters in history at Columbia University. She lived in Rome for eight years but now lives in the South of France with her husband and two sons, Peter Anton and Maximilian.
Gabi Swiatkowska has illustrated many notable books for children, includingMy Name is Yoon, for which she received the Ezra Jack Keats New Illustrator Award. She lives in France.
