Author Information

"Lisa has always loved children so it was no surprise that she became a teacher. Her background in music and theater allowed her to find a ""perfect"" job. Through that job one day, a tiny seed of an idea was born. During a funny interaction with a student and a subsequent drawing, Lisa had the idea of writing a book. In March 2020, while visiting her cousin in Boston, she stumbled upon another book idea quite by accident. She was commenting to her cousin, who had just introduced her to a friend of hers who had illustrated a book, and Lisa was making a joke that she should hire the friend and was scrolling through her photos and found a picture of a cow. The cow picture, taken on Lisa's Grandmother's farm, looked like it had cut its bangs- and very poorly at that. Well, upon typing ""cows with bangs"" into the phone, ""Bang's Disease"" came up."" It's a disease that has been eradicated, but her 100-year-old Grandmother remembers vaccinating her cows for it. That spurred a book idea and on the plane ride home from Boston to California, her fourth book was written. Lisa has found, through everyday experiences and quite an imagination, ideas for many more books. She's written 8 so far, with ideas for at least 4 more. Through her travels, she has found inspiration as well. Lisa also taught culinary arts at the Jr. High level and has been inspired to write an international cookbook for families to cook together, after enjoying all the international food she's been trying. Victor is an illustrator from Brazil. He is passionate about nature and loves to represent the beauty of things with vibrant colors and stories that immerse the viewer into his world. He is also a published author with his debut children's book called ""The Dhow"" available in Brazil, with plans to publish in English."
