Margaret Wise Brown (1910–52) was an American children's book author. Her best-known works include Goodnight Moon and Runaway Bunny.

Katy Hudson started her illustration career as a small child drawing on freshly painted walls around the house. Her parents quickly dissuaded this medium and encouraged drawing with pencil and paper instead. Obsessed with drawing animals and telling stories, the idea stuck. The pencil was updated to an ink pot and pen, and after some lovely time at Art College and a degree in Illustration, Katy became a professional illustrator. She is based in London.
