About the Author
Juliette MacIver lives in a seaside suburb in New Zealand, with her husband and her live-in test audience of four young children. First published in 2010, and she now has 16 picture books released with four different publishers: Scholastic NZ, Gecko Press, Walker Books and HarperCollins Australia. Four of her books have won the Storylines Notable Book Award, and six have been short-listed for other top awards in New Zealand and Australia. Her books are also available in Canada, the UK, and the USA, where one of her most recent books, Yak and Gnu, received excellent reviews in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Boston Globe and the National Bulletin for Children's Literature. When not writing, she enjoys yoga, playing soccer, and dancing with her children in the kitchen. She is also a little bit fanatical about the Rubik's Cube.
