Kallie George is an author, editor and creative writing teacher.
Her parents gave her a copy of Anne of Green Gables for her eighth birthday, which still sits on her bookcase in her studio, and her work for the Anne chapter book series was influenced by her teen memories of Prince Edward Island as one of the most beautiful, magical spots on the planet..
Her illustrations are a blend of traditional and digital media, and she has illustrated many beautiful children\'s books including Finding Wild , Fort Building Time and, most recently, Itzhak: A Boy Who Loved the Violin .
ABIGAIL HALPIN is an illustrator living in southern Maine, a few miles from the sea.
Kallie currently lives in Vancouver, BC, and feels positively certain she and Anne Shirley are kindred spirits.
