Kit Elliot began writing children's books as a child and after studying English at university, Kit enjoys developing new book ideas and working with illustrators to create fun and engaging activity books for children. Amanda is a designer and illustrator who has worked in publishing, design and advertising. Amanda now works from her home studio, and when she's not illustrating and designing she is spending time with her family and enjoying her garden. In fact, if Amanda hadn't gone into design she would have like to be a landscape gardener as the shapes and textures of foliage have always enchanted her.
