Author Biography

Jenny McLachlan was an English teacher before she started writing books. Although she loved teaching funny teenagers (and stealing the things they said and putting them in her books), she now gets to write full-time. In her spare time, Jenny loves to jive. Visit her website at: www.jennymclachlan.com. Sarah Lawrence has worked in children's publishing since 2006, creating bright and engaging illustrations. She lives and works on the sunny south coast of England with her daughter, who inspires her daily. In her free time, Sarah loves to paint, play guitar and bake cakes. But not all at once.
