Nigel Gray has published over seventy books – most for children
– and they have been translated into twenty-four languages. He has
won The Dickens Fellowship Award, and The Irish Post Award for
Literature. His books for children include A Balloon for Grandad
and A Country Far Away. Nigel was born in Ireland, but now lives in
a timber and iron pole house in Kalamunda, Western Australia, with
his wife and their dog.
Bob Graham has written and illustrated many acclaimed children’s
picture books, including How to Heal a Broken Wing, Max, which won
the 2000 Smarties Gold Medal, and Jethro Byrde, Fairy Child, which
won the 2003 Kate Greenaway Medal. He has won the Australian
Children’s Book of the Year Award an unprecedented three times. He
lives in Victoria, Australia.
Told in flawless rhyming text, Nigel Gray has delivered a gorgeous
story for very young readers about where babies come from, without
any of the gory details. Bob Graham's whimsical illustrations
perfectly capture the worn out look of a new mum (in both animal
and human form), as well as the energy and love that new little
creatures bring into a home.
