About the Authors

Originally from Zimbabwe, Micaela Tapsell has always enjoyed learning about different cultures and exploring the great outdoors. When she s not rafting the rapids of the Zambezi river or camping among the African wildlife, she is writing books on all sorts of delightful subjects, from science s greatest unknowns to the wildflowers of the world.

Lizzie Cope grew up in Wiltshire, not far from Stonehenge – she has this to thank for her love of nature, legends and World Heritage sites. Now she lives in London, where she s written books about giraffes, oceans and plastic, and thought up lots of ideas for puzzles and activities, too.
