Maureen Wright lives in Athens, Pennsylvania. She and her husband, Don, have three grown sons, a daughter-in-law, and a new little grandson. Her two cats like to hang out by the computer when she writes. She dog-sits her son's big black lab, Gus, who thinks he is a lap dog. He often gets in the way when she is writing stories.

Paul Rátz de Tagyos went to Parsons School of Design quite some time ago. He is the author/illustrator of several books for children. He lives in New Rochelle, NY with neither fleas nor roaches (he swears).
