Beatrys Lockie (1927-2023) was born in The Netherlands and began to tell stories at an early age. After moving to the UK Beatrys married Edinburgh-born James Lockie and they had five children. Once the children had grown, together the family rebuilt an 18th-century stable block in Lamancha, Peebleshire. As well as being a talented weaver and spinner, Beatrys was a class teacher at Edinburgh Steiner School until her retirement. She lived with her family in the Scottish Borders for many years. Sandra Klaassen was born in 1959 in the Netherlands but lived for many years on the island of North Uist in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland, from where she drew her inspiration for Scottish picture books Peg the Little Sheepdog and Uan the Little Lamb. She has illustrated over thirty children's books.
