A poignantly beautiful story from the CBCA Shortlisted author of Suri's Wall, Lucy Estela, and Prime Minister's Literary Award shortlisted illustrator of Adelaide's Secret World, Elise Hurst.
Lucy Estela (Author)
Lucy Estela's love of writing became apparent as early as age seven
when she began writing and illustrating a multitude of storybooks
and newspaper columns that were printed up at home and forced upon
her family. Since then she has taken a fascinating path towards
publishing her first book.
Her university degree focused on languages but rather than becoming
a language teacher, Lucy was introduced to the world of computer
games and has pursued a successful career in London and now in
Australia as a developer of websites and games for the kids and
youth entertainment market including such brands as Disney, Warner
Bros Pictures, Chorion and Xbox.
Lucy's debut picture book with Penguin, Suri's Wall, illustrated by
the talented Matt Ottley, was shortlisted for a CBCA Award. She
lives in Sydney with her husband and three children.
Elise Hurst (Illustrator)
Elise Hurst is an illustrator, author and fine artist. She has
illustrated over 50 books and is known worldwide for her surreal
vintage images in paintings, cards and her own books. Her most
recent picture book, Adelaide's Secret World, was shortlisted for
the Prime Minister's Literary Awards in 2016. She lives in
Melbourne with her husband, Peter, and their twin boys.
