Sandra Severgnini owned an art gallery and retail store before finally deciding it was well and truly time to nurture her lifetime passion and focus on children’s picture books. Her fascination with the magical natural world around her inspires her words and brings sensitivity and humor to her illustrations.

Sandra’s other books include Grub and Tree Beings (also published by EK Books), as well as Boogie Woogie Bird, In the Shadow of an Elephant, Where’s Lucky?, and The Christmas Garden. In 2020, Tree Beings was an INDIES Finalist for Juvenile Nonfiction (Children’s) and won a Wilderness Society Environment Award for Children’s Literature.
