About this title

About the Authors

Ginger Swift loves writing books to read aloud to babies and toddlers, especially if there are playful flaps to lift and surprise. Ginger believes that you should read to your baby from the day they're born - if not sooner!

When Ginger Swift isn't writing, you can find her wearing oven mitts on her hands and cookie batter in her hair. She lives in Chicago with her family and a kitty named m&m.

(psssst! Ginger Swift is actually a pen name for the Cottage Door Press team who worked on this book.)

Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones--exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow.

We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read.

To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible.

A freelance artist based in North Staffordshire in the UK, Rachel Grant lives and works in an old Victorian terraced house. Looking at her art, it's the perfect setting! The area where she lives is well known for its rich potteries heritage. Rachel said, "It is this love of history, time-worn surfaces, and the consistency of the natural world around them that inspires and informs my work." It certainly shows. "I dream of one day living off-grid in an old cottage by the sea, embracing a life of slow, peaceful living and my illustrations are often a glimpse of that world."

Rachel incorporates a range of media in her artwork, depending on the end use. These can include drawing, painting, collage and print - bringing them together digitally at the end. When not at her desk working, you will find Rachel knitting, gardening, baking bread, sewing clothes or snuggled under blankets watching great films. It sounds like the ideal life of an artist!

Rachel's clients include: Anthropologie, The Boston Globe, MidwestCBK, Garnet Hill, Design House Greetings, Pier 1, Taproot Magazine, Octopus Books, Abrams Noterie and Simple Things Magazine, Hobby Lobby, American Greetings, TJX, Peter Pauper Press, Sellers Publishing, the Christmas Tree Shops, Amber Lotus, Loloi Rugs, Hallmark, UK Greetings, Rosemary Magazine, Calypso Cards, Good Cause Greetings, Karma Living, Garnet HIll, and others.
