Growing up in the heart of Western Sydney, Corrine Ranieri always dreamt of living life by the beach. As a child, she immersed herself in recreating the imaginary worlds that she read about in books, worlds filled with fairies and animals that wore bow ties and top hats. Corrine wanted to dedicate her life to teaching children to read so she could share this joy. After being a primary school teacher for thirteen years, and now a mother to three small children, she has found herself creating stories inspired by her children's imaginations and personalities. =====||=====Lucia Mongioj was born in Novara, Italy.
