Author's Bio

Poet and author Dom Conlon divides his time between staring at the moon, writing books, and thinking about cake. This Rock That Rock, his collection of poetry with award-winning illustrator Viviane Schwarz, has been praised by Chris Riddell as being "simply out of this world" and Brian Bilston as "life-affirming". Dom is an occasional guest on BBC Radio where, as his teachers often noted, he talks too much. Heidi is a children’s book illustrator and author based in the North of England. She loves to paint, draw and imagine delightful, wondrous scenes. She can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a tin of crayons or a messy paintbrush in reach. Her work combines traditional and digital techniques and is inspired by my love of colour, music, travel and nostalgia. She completed her M.A. in Children’s book illustration at UCLan in 2020.  Heidi is a children’s book illustrator and author based in the North of England.
