Ian Smith studied for a BA in Illustration at the University of the West of England and has been illustrating ever since. He is the illustrator of Wanna See a Penguin? and Wanna See a Llama? written by Simon Philip (OUP). Rosalind Spark lives in south London and fell in love with stories when she was very small and constantly pestered her dad to make up sequels to her favourite fairy tales. Her writing is inspired by the many things in life she finds fascinating, which range from how the galaxy works to why sandwiches cut in triangles taste better."This is an hilarious imagining of coronation day and a great way to celebrate the coronation."
