Red Riding Hood and the Sweet Little Wolf Award-winning illustrator by Rachael Mortimer (author) and Liz Pichon (illustrator) (UK edition)

Rachael Mortimer is the author of Song for a Princess for Chicken House and several other picture books. Rachael has always loved fiction and was the heroine in many made up bedtime stories! Her favourite picture book was The Trouble with Timothy by Dale Maxey.

Rachael had many successful years in advertising but is now a full time writer and mother. She lives in London with her husband and two daughters, who are a constant source of inspiration for her children’s books.

When Liz was little, she loved to draw, paint and make things. Her mum used to say she was very good at making a mess (which is still true today!).

She kept drawing and went to art school, where she earned a degree in graphic design. She worked as a designer and art director in the music industry, and her freelance work has appeared on a wide variety of products.

Liz is the author-illustrator of several picture books. Tom Gates is the first series of books she has written and illustrated for older children. They have won several prestigious awards, including the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize, and the Blue Peter Book Award. The books have been translated into forty-one languages worldwide.
