Nicola O'Byrne was banned from watching Saturday morning television by her parents, and she has been drawing ever since. She grew up in Singapore surrounded by the vibrant colors of the tropics. She gets most of her ideas for children’s books when she should be working on something else, and she bases all of her characters on people she knows. She lives in Los Angeles.
A rabbit who is not ready to go to sleep traps The Dark in a cookie
tin...Similarly resistant young children will be lulled by a subtly
soothing tone that even the outsized pop-up doesn't disturb.
—Kirkus Reviews
When it gets dark, little ones have to go to sleep. That’s the
normal arrangement, anyway, vexing as it may be to some. But what
if it can’t get dark? Hah, what then? Nicola O’Byrne plays with
this thought experiment in “The Rabbit, the Dark, and the Cookie
Tin”, a tale of avoiding bedtime that may leave 3- to 7-year-olds
with a new appreciation for the positive side of lights-out.
—The Wall Street Journal
