About the Author
Meeg Pincus is a children's author, humane educator, and speaker who loves celebrating and telling stories about real "solutionaries" who help people, animals, and the planet. She is a lifelong writer and has been a newspaper reporter, book editor, and essayist--but writing children's books is her favorite. It was as a newspaper reporter over 20 years ago that Meeg had the honor of meeting Miep Gies in person. She lives in San Diego, California.
Jordi Solano was born in Barcelona, Spain. At the age of two, since he didn't yet know the word "illustrator," he told his mom and dad that he wanted to spend his whole life drawing. He went on to study fine arts and illustration, and since then he's been illustrating mostly children's books, such as Swimming with Sharks, Rónán and the Mermaid, and Papá.
