The Author

Kirstin Jebautzke is a trained elementary and secondary school teacher for English and other subjects. After an extended period of studying in the US, she worked first at a school and then for a textbook publisher for many years. These experiences mean she knows exactly what elementary school children need in terms of theory and practice to learn English properly. In 2010, she decided to go freelance, opening her own editorial office, and has since been working as a writer of teaching materials with a focus on English, particularly for elementary schools. She also edits textbooks and specialist magazines on the subject.

The Illustrator

Bright-eyed children - this is the goal that Heidenheim-born illustrator Stephanie Stickel has set herself for her drawings. She studied sports science and art to become a teacher, but then decided against being a teacher and rediscovered her love of children's books together with her children. As a freelance illustrator, she creates children's books for various publishers with witty and loving drawings. She lives with her family mainly in France.
