About Ilse Krabben

Author Ilse Krabben lives in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. She also spends time in France, in the southern countryside where she grew up. Although she started as a theater director and performer, Ilse was drawn to writing too. At first, she wrote columns and later began creating poetry and theater pieces. Additionally, Ilse teaches theater to children. She wants to help children reflect upon what they need, dream about, and feel in this world. Giving children a sense of dignity and safety is Ilses greatest aspiration.

Illustrator Hedie Meischke enjoyed living a quiet life on a farm in the Eastern Netherlands with her husband and sweet dog. She drew every single day, even after being diagnosed with ALS. Sadly, in 2023, Hedie passed away from the effects of this debilitating illness. Yet her colorful drawings live on, showing people the enormous beauty of life.
