May Nakamura writes and edits books for children. She grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area but now lives in New York City. She really likes eating maple donuts and playing hide and seek (but not at the same time)!

Alexandra S. Badiu is a Romanian children’s book illustrator and visual developer for animation. She participated in collaborative projects with the Harlem Globetrotters, Adult Swim, Hallmark Cards, and Kwippit app as a student. Her love of animation and books drove her decision to becoming a children’s book illustrator. Creating visual worlds and the ability to share it with children is her ultimate passion. Alexandra enjoys illustrating nature, fantasy, and science stories for children. She works digitally but practices and sketches traditionally to keep the natural aspect of her brush strokes intact.
