Nicola Baxter has written or compiled over three hundred
children's titles. She has developed ideas for a wide variety of
international publishers, and particularly enjoys the marriage
of words and pictures that children's books entails.
Cathie Shuttleworth was trained in calligraphy, heraldry and
illumination, but her real love is illustration for children's books.
Her beautifully detailed artwork has attracted admirers from all
over the world. Through her work with the Royal College of
Arms, she has produced coats of arms and also a guide to Buckingham Palace.
