Author Biography
Lori C. Froeb began her career in publishing right out of college at Reader's Digest world headquarters in Pleasantville, New York. She landed a dream job as an editor for Reader's Digest Children's Publishing (now Studio Fun International) and worked on licensed, nonfiction, craft, and religious novelty books for 22 years. Following her time at Studio Fun, Lori took a road trip across the U.S. and, upon her return home, decided to enter the exciting world of freelancing. Today, Lori works as an independent children's book editor and writer with more than 200 authored titles under her belt. In her free time, she is an avid photographer, hiker, and traveler who lives with her morkie Frodo in the Hudson Valley, New York.
Monica Garofalo was born, lives, and works in Trento, a city in northern Italy, and deals with illustration and graphics. Her father was a painter, and he conveyed to her the joy and passion for painting, art, and music, teaching her the joy of colors and imagination from an early age. In every painting by her father, there is always a small leaf or a flower designed by her! She earned a degree in graphic design and multimedia at the LABA academy and participated in various artistic training and illustration courses, becoming certified in digital graphics. She was selected in 2014 and 2015 for two exhibitions at MAG in Riva del Garda, Italy, during the Notte di Fiaba (Night of Fairy Tales). She came in second place in a competition organized by Lucca comics for Sammontana in 2014, and was selected in the "Libraries in fiore" competition of 2018. For ten years, she worked for a Roman publishing house as an illustrator and editorial graphic designer, working on various illustrated children's books. In her own work, she uses various digital software, but she has not abandoned paper and colors completely, enjoying working with acrylic and oil pastels in particular. She currently collaborates with publishers to create illustrations for picture books, fairy tales, and magazine covers. And in her spare time, she divides her time among house cleaning, her three children, her husband, two dogs, and a cat.
