Renee Price is a book lover extraordinaire. She loves books - all sizes, all types - and spends her days thinking about books, reading books, writing books and (sometimes/often) wishing she lived in a book. Through her business 'Read by Renee', her days are filled working as a storyteller, book reviewer, running book themed workshops and creating book themed instillations. Renee lives in sunny Ballarat and if you see her in the street, she will probably be whimsically wishing she was living in the magic faraway tree whilst wrangling children, life duties and a coffee. And maybe two dogs. One of Renee's favourite roles to play each year is 'Mrs Claus' and she is absolutely delighted to bring the story of Mrs Claus to life with her first picture book.

Travis Price is an Australian graphic artist and illustrator with 25+ years of experience. Based in Ballarat, his work spans murals, animation, branding, and music posters. Drawing from '80s/'90s nostalgia, his bold, vibrant style and playful typography have earned him a strong reputation in the Australian illustration scene, working with top agencies and brands. When not illustrating Travis is thinking about illustrating - much to the frustration of his wife, kids and dogs.
