Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara, born in Barcelona, Spain, is a writer
and creative director in constant search of new concepts for
children's books and the author of the multimillion-copy
bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series of picture books that
explore the lives of outstanding people. Working for more than
fifteen years for clients in top advertising agencies, her books
combine creativity with learning, aiming to establish a new and
fresh relationship between children and pop culture.
Sophie Beer (nee Blackhall-Cain) is an award-winning
illustrator/author living in Brisbane, Australia. She completed a
dual degree in Law and Creative Industries with distinction at
Queensland University of Technology but found the whole law thing
unutterably dull and now works primarily in children's and
editorial illustration. Revelling in colour, shape and texture, she
lives by one simple rule: art should never be boring. When she's
not illustrating and writing, she thinks a lot about plants,
animals, music and books.
“The critically acclaimed and bestselling Little People, Big Dreams
series hits its 50th title with a biography of the piano
wizard who rocketed to stardom with his music.”
*The Bookseller, October Previews*
'A technicolored journey which charts the rise and rise of one of
the greatest icons in music for his younger fans.’
