I wrote my first book when I was 8 years old. I glued photos of my cats in a blank book and wrote about them, too. Now I am an internationally-published children's author commended by the Library of Congress for my work encouraging children to read.
I write in a room between a deli and an art gallery on a small town street. I can see families walking by, and I can hear children laughing and playing. It helps me to remember what exactly I'm doing this for - creating books for families all over the world to use together, and helping children to love words. -

Walter Farley
Walter Farley's love for horses began when he was a small boy living in Syracuse, New York, and continued as he grew up in New York City, where his family moved. Young Walter never owned a horse. But unlike most city children, he had little trouble gaining firsthand experience with horses-his uncle was a professional horseman, and Walter spent much of his time at the stables with him.

"He wasn't the most successful trainer of race horses," Mr. Farley recalled, "and in a way I profited by it. He switched from runners to jumpers to show horses to trotters and pacers, then back to runners again. Consequently, I received a good background in different kinds of horse training and the people associated with each."

Emily Rand
Emily Rand is an illustrator living in London, UK.

Emily grew up immersed in books, from picture books to poetry and novels. As a child she always studied the illustrations in picture books for tiny details, trying to make sense of the world through the illustrations. Books by Shirley Hughes and Janet and Allan Ahlberg were her favourites with their familiar depictions of slightly chaotic, everyday family life.
Emily studied illustration at Camberwell College of Arts and the London College of Communication. After graduating Emily worked with children and young people teaching art and running creative workshops in schools, galleries and museums.
Inspired by the beautiful and unusual books in the children’s bookshop Chantelivre in Paris, Emily
