About the Author

Andy Jones is the author of five novels for adults, and he hopes you will read them all when you’re grown-up. His first novel for children is called Wishes Come in Threes. Andy has also written two non-fiction guides for children about creative writing, Unleash Your Creative Monster: A Children's Guide to Writing and Creative Writing Magic: 80 Tips and Tricks for Young Writers.

Olaf Falafel is an author, illustrator and a stand-up comedian (which is pretty similar to a stand-up chameleon, except he doesn't change colour to blend in with the background). As well as trying to make people laugh on stage, Olaf draws a lot and tries to come up with funny ideas for kids' books. His books for children include the award-winning picture book, Blobfish and the Trixie Pickle: Art Avenger series. Olaf also has an Art Club on YouTube, full of real drawing tips and facts about famous artists.
