Do Princesses Make Happy Campers?

About Carmela LaVigna CoyleMike Gordon

Being in nature is central to all of Carmela LaVigna Coyle’s many picture books. She walks daily under a canopy of cottonwoods because she believes there’s always something extraordinary to see outside. Carmela lives, works, and camps (happily) in Colorado with her family.

Mike Gordon was brought up in the big city of Manchester, and although he spent time camping in the cold, wet climate of northern England, he soon learned the comforts of five-star hotels. He now resides in dry Santa Barbara, California, where he spends his days drawing the great outdoors but feels more at home in the malls close to home.
