Jan used to be a teacher and Sara used to be a midwife. They discovered that they both wanted to write children’s stories and that it was more fun doing it together. If one of them is stuck for an idea, the other usually comes up with something or makes a cup of tea. They drink a lot of tea. Jan used to be a teacher and Sara used to be a midwife.
