Hannah Eliot is a children’s book editor who lives in Manhattan, New York. Her favorite activities include editing (of course), writing, painting, and doodling all over every piece of notebook paper she uses.

Jade Orlando was born on an army base in North Carolina and grew up in a tiny Michigan town. After an impassioned childhood spent drawing dragons and cat ladies, she traveled to SCAD Savannah to get a BFA in illustration. Jade worked as a staff children’s apparel artist before switching to freelance full time. She currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia, with her husband, greyhound, and four cats (including two naked ones!). When she’s not drawing, she can usually be found curled up with my cats and a really good book.
