Meet Wizard, the star show dog who revels in the applause as he performs his amazing tricks.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Ellen DeLange has been fascinated by picture books ever since she was a child growing up in the Netherlands. In the attic of her home, she assembled a small library and shared her collection with friends and family. As an adult, she started traveling and expanded her library with picture books from all over the world. Ellen also enjoyed inventing her own stories and was encouraged by her daughter to write her first picture book, A Story with a Tail. She always has new story ideas in her head and can’t wait for the moment when the text and illustrations come together to make the magic happen. Ellen has a doctorate in medical sciences, and currently lives in Canada, where she loves to walk in the woods with her Jack Russell terriers (who are featured in some of her books), drink lots of tea after a busy day, and sail on the ocean to clear her mind.

After graduating as an art teacher, Janneke Kelderman (The Netherlands) picked up illustration a couple of years ago and has loved it ever since. She works with many different materials and techniques, mostly analog. Collage, gouache, pastels and pencils are her favorite materials. She often works in her sketchbook first as it helps her to stay loose and experiment. Her home in a little village, the beautiful landscapes and her two kids are her biggest inspiration.
