The Author

Anja Kiel, born in 1973, wanted to become a painter or dancer as a child. Only after her master's degree in art history, philosophy and applied cultural sciences did she discover her enthusiasm for writing. After the birth of her two children, she finally turned her hobby into a career and became an author. The beauty of her job is that with every book she can immerse herself into a new world. To relax, she does yoga or visits museums. The author lives her dream of happiness today: she can practice her profession freely and spend a lot of time with her family.

The Illustrator

Angela Glökler was born in Rastatt in Southern Germany. Via some loops und curves, her career path led her to studying illustration at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften, HAW). To this day, she has remained loyal to both the north and to illustrating, creating drawings and paintings for big and small children in a Hamburg artists’ residence. And because she loves loops und curves so much, they now appear in her drawings.
