Maggie Sparks and the Secret Elf

Steve Smallman has been illustrating children's books for over 40 years and has written a number of his own award-winning children's stories. When he's not working or visiting schools, Steve enjoys films, television, gardening, and walking in the countryside.Esther Hernando lives in Barcelona with her partner, her cat and a bunny. As a child, she always filled her school books with drawings, and when she got home she kept drawing. She studied 1 year comic and illustration in Escola Joso and since then she's a self-taught artist focusing on the Children's illustrations. Esther's work is expressive, fun, colourful, and textured. She always works digitally since it allows her to work from anywhere, from a coffee shop to the sofa of her house. In addition to illustration, she likes gastronomy, movies and television, video games and hanging out with the people she loves.
