Go Away! and Let's Make a Rocket (Early Reader)

Description

Farmer wants to sleep but the animals are hungry! Everyone wants to make something! What shall they make?

Elizabeth Dale lives in a Sussex village and always dreamed of being a writer but somehow got side-tracked into doing a physics degree. When her children were born she returned to her dream and wrote short stories for magazines all over the world. But she enjoyed reading children's books to her daughters so much, she tried writing them and absolutely loved that. She has had over 40 published, including 11 picture books, and has recently started writing Early Readers, which are great fun. Having seen the wonderful life she leads, sipping tea and gazing out of the window while thinking up ideas, two of her daughters have grown up to be children's authors, too. Author of: Cool Duck and Lots of Hats, Bad Dog and No, Nell, No!, Sam the Star and Clown Fun!, Go Away! and Let's Make a Rocket Who Will Win the Cup? and Izzy! Wizzy! Gina is a Colombian illustrator living in the bustling city of Hong Kong with her partner and 2 cats. She studied architecture and interior design - in Colombia, Mexico and Italy!- but decided that creating cuddly and cute animals suited her personality better. She loves to draw all kinds of animals and flowers with bold colours mixed with hand-drawn textures. When she's not drawing she's travelling the world, exploring exotic places and taking pictures of animals. Illustrator of: Go Away! and Let's Make a Rocket and A Job for Pop
