B.C. Stephan

When B.C. was a kid, the only thing he didn’t want to do was write. And if you mentioned the word grammar, he would disappear before you could finish your sentence. In fact, instead of using a pencil for writing, he would spin a basketball on top of it. Luckily, B.C. developed a passion for writing when he began learning new languages, often writing stories in Spanish, then translating them to English.

While learning Chinese, and teaching English in China, B.C. realized that kids are more engaged when they are reading something interesting. Wow! What a concept. In order to learn languages and write books that kids would enjoy at the same time, B.C. decided to feed two birds with one hand by writing his first chapter book in Spanish. This is

Joey Benun

Joey Benun has always thought BIG—just like the BIG numbers he loves so much. He’s been fascinated with numbers since he was five years old—the bigger, the better. A fortuitous conversation with his niece and nephews inspired him to think EVEN BIGGER and introduce children of all ages to the fun and fascination of large numbers. Thus, Pebbles and the Biggest Number was born!

Years before Pebbles took flight, nine-year-old Joey penned a comic series about a disgruntled ketchup packet. Transformed into The Ketchup Monster after being carelessly discarded, it wasn't long before his imaginative tale had both friends and teachers vying for a copy.

Currently, Joey resides in Brooklyn, New York, overseeing Amazon accounts for his family's apparel bu

Susie Dinneen

Before Susie Dinneen became a writer, she was a reader, and before that she was a dreamer. Now she’s all of those things. She catches stories that flit and float through the air, which is what she’s really doing when it looks like she’s daydreaming (although sometimes she’s just daydreaming).

She writes fast-paced adventures for young readers, about friendship, finding the truth, and treasure!

Her picture book, Nombulelo and the Moth, for 4 to 8 year olds, is about love and being brave, even when there are leopards in the forest.

She lives in Johannesburg, South Africa, with her husband, who’s a musician, and their cat, who pushes books off tables. One day she’ll have a library with a very comfy chair in it.
