Susan Green grew up by the beach and in country Victoria and always
wanted to write and illustrate books. She gave away her art studies
and teaching to concentrate on writing when she won an Age short
story competition. Eight books for children and young adults
followed in the next ten years. Susan loves looking at what other
people are wearing, but she herself is a total dag.
Illustrator Gregory Rogers was born in 1957 and lives in Brisbane,
Australia. He has had several solo exhibitions and is one of
Australia's finest children's book illustrators. In 1995 he was
awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal for Book Illustration for Way Home
by Libby Hathorn. Gregory is also a musician and a keen collector
of CDs, antiques, books and anything that attracts dust.
"How can a young reader not pause to pick up any of the It's True!nonfiction series? They have what must surely be the funkiest, attention-grapping titles on any bookshelf loads of utterly fascinating information and trivia delivered in a most engaging flip style. Great fun yet authoritatively researched Cover to cover, they are simply irresistible." Kevin Steinberger, Magpiesvol 20, No. 3, July 2005.
