Shaelyn Mcdaniel grew up in South Florida before moving to New York for a digital marketing career with kids books.
She has illustrated several children\'s books, including the Glow in the Dark series (Wide Eyed) and The Trouble with Time Travel (Owlkids)..
She now lives in Toronto, Canada, where she works as a full-time illustrator.
She studied illustration at OCAD University.
For this book, she was inspired by mid-century art and printmaking to match the focus on space and technology.
Cornelia Li loves the challenge of making factual but emotional art for scientific topics.
This is her debut picture book.
As a kid she assumed humans had already been to Mars, and as an adult she remains incensed that we haven\'t (yet).
In college, she majored in English.
