Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Zoe Wodarz is an artist, designer, and author living in Minnesota. Known for her playful artistic creations and witty humor, Zoe has turned her childhood memories and imaginative passion for storytelling into writing the world of Archie and Pip!

Mari Richards is an illustrator and author, an award-winning toy designer and an occasional art professor. Her first memories are full of art supplies - especially the messy ones - and she believes making things is a daily requirement. You'll find her gathering rocks and feathers, sniffing every book she reads (and some she doesn't), and living a chaotic, wonderful life with her husband, daughter, and two rescue mutts near St. Paul, MN.

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.
