Tove Jansson

Tove Jansson was born and died in Helsinki, Finland. As a Finnish citizen whose mother tongue was Swedish, she was part of the Swedish-speaking Finns minority. Thus, all her books were originally written in Swedish.

Although known first and foremost as an author, Tove Jansson considered her careers as author and painter to be of equal importance.

Tove Jansson wrote and illustrated her first Moomin book, The Moomins and the Great Flood (1945), during World War II. She said later that the war had depressed her, and she had wanted to write something naive and innocent. Besides the Moomin novels and short stories, Tove Jansson also wrote and illustrated four original and highly popular picture books.

Tom Percival

Tom Percival writes and illustrates picture books (you know, for kids) as well as illustrating books written by other people. The most well known of these is probably the excellent Skulduggery Pleasant series by Derek Landy.

He grew up in a remote and beautiful part of South Shropshire. On reflection this seemed rather more remote than beautiful, owing to the fact that he lived in a small caravan without electricity, mains water or any sensible form of heating. He thinks that he’s probably one of the few people in his peer group to have learnt to read by gas lamp.
Surprisingly enough he has never been called ‘hippy’ (to the best of his knowledge)

Tom now lives in an actual house with his girlfriend and their two young sons.

Michelle Robinson

Librarian Note: There is more than one author by this name in the Goodreads database.

When I'm not up to my knees in nappies, I write children's books. I also spend a fair amount of time eating chocolate. I try to write funny, read-aloud books that parents will enjoy as much as children - after all, if you have to share the same stories umpteen times, you may as well enjoy them.
I hope you like my books enough to read them umpteen times. Thank you - Michelle.

Terhi Tarkiainen

Terhi Tarkiainen on kotoisin Lappeenrannasta, sittemmin helsinkiläistynyt, mutta aina karjalainen. Koulutukseltaan hän on humanisti, kirjoittajana kujeileva humoristi ja omaleimainen historiallisen romaanin taituri. Monipuolinen kirjailija tunnetaan niin 1700-luvun brittineidoista kertovasta Vallattomat viettelijät -sarjasta kuin nyky-Suomeen sijoittuvasta Verta hampaissa -vampyyrisarjasta. Jo nuorena Tarkiainen ilmoitti haluavansa Kaari Utrioksi Kaari Utrion paikalle, aikuisena hän on tyytyväinen vain saadessaan seurata perässä.

Maria Kuutti

Olen syntynyt 1980 ja elänyt suurimman osan elämästäni Kangasniemellä. Lapsuuteni asuin kyläkoulua vastapäätä ja tiesin kuulemma jo ekaluokkalaisena haluavani opettajaksi. Myös kirjoitusinto näkyi pienenä, sillä alaluokan opettajani kutsui minua runotytöksi. Äitini työskenteli pitkään kirjastovirkailijana, joten kirjat ovat kuuluneet aina merkittävänä osana elämääni.

Lukion jälkeen halusin opiskella kirjoittamista ja kirjallisuutta. Pääsin Helsingin yliopistoon ja opiskelin siellä yleistä kirjallisuustiedettä. Veri veti kuitenkin takaisin Kangasniemelle, joten viimeistelin maisterinopintoni Jyväskylässä. Minusta tuli äidinkielenopettaja vuonna 2005.

Kirjojen lisäksi toinen intohimoni on kuntoilu. Voin kertoa, että liikunta kannattaa aina, si
