Jessie May ==========

Jessie May always wanted to be able to have a conversation with her dog, Buck. She wondered what he would say if he could. Unfortunately, this proved to be impossible. So instead, she decided to write stories where the impossible is possible. Where talking animals, magic and wild adventures can all exist just because she wants them to.

Maia Batumashvili was born in Tiblisi, Georgia in 1978. Since a young age, Maia has loved to draw and is inspired by the children's books and cartoons she grew up with. After graduating from two art institutes, Maia worked on an animation project before finally realising her dream of illustrating children's books. When Maia is not creating imaginative worlds, she enjoys spending time with her three beautiful children and her dog, Tayo.
