Carrie Kruck

Carrie Kruck was born and raised in Canada, studied and worked as a psychologist in Australia, and now lives in a cozy house at the edge of the woods in New England. Her home is filled with laughter and love and a lot of Lego, and has a room with built-in bookshelves that she calls "the library," so she has pretty much everything she needs!

Erika Meza is the author-illustrator of To the Other Side, which was called "gorgeously rendered" by Kirkus in a starred review. She has illustrated many other books for young readers, including My Two Border Towns (written by David Bowles) and Balloons for Papa (written by Elizabeth Gildert Bedia). She grew up in Mexico, studied illustration in France, and now resides in the United Kingdom, with her blue cat. Learn more at ErikaMeza.com.
