Autorenporträt
Robert Furrow is a gardener, a wildlife educator, and a birder. He is also a professor of teaching at the University of California, Davis, where he lives with his wife and daughters and dog. He teaches many shades of introductory biology, including wildlife natural history and how to garden for wildlife habitat. This is his sixth book co-authored with his mother Donna Jo Napoli. Donna Jo Napoli has published books for preschoolers through high schoolers. She is a gardener, a dancer, and a dual citizen of Italy and America. She is also a linguist who works on sign languages, advocates for the language rights of deaf children, and co-directs the website RISE, which offers bimodal-bilingual video books for free. She lives with her husband outside Philadelphia. Melissa Bailey is the daughter of an avid gardener and granddaughter of a farmer. However, though she has her own jungle of potted plants in her studio, her green thumb usually is the result of sticking it in paint rather than inherited horticultural skill. Melissa is the author-illustrator of two picture books and has illustrated over 50 children's books. In 2019, she won the Moonbeam Awards silver medal for Best Illustrator (Steve the Dung Beetle: On a Roll, Pygmy Giraffe Publishing). Melissa loves living in rural Michigan somewhere between Flint and Detroit, thinks it would be awesome to live in a treehouse, and tries to remember to water her plants.
