Notă biografică

Jennifer Keats Curtis is thrilled that children can identify exotic animals, but she also wants to help bring children closer to the animals in their own backyards. By combining language arts with science in a once upon a time setting, she hopes to bring this Gulf Coast and Atlantic species to life, to help young children understand important ecological issues and what they can do to help. Jennifers first book, Oshus and Shelly Save the Bay, won the Frederick Douglass Award (Maryland Council of Teachers of English Language Arts). Besides writing childrens stories, Jennifer writes for a wide variety of magazines, Maryland Life Magazine, Its Your Life, and Corridor, Inc. Avid fans of anything having to do with water, Jennifer and her family spend their summer in and on the Chesapeake Bay. She resides in the Annapolis, Maryland area, with two daughters, one husband, one golden retriever, two hermit crabs, and of course, a turtle.Emanuel Schongut (illustrator) is a prolific, multi-faceted freelance illustrator who works in children's books, book covers, textbook illustration, editorial art, posters, and advertising art essentially he does it all!
