About the Author

Of all the books that Holly Berry-Byrd has written, she loves the Christmas ones best. It is no wonder! Holly Noel Berry was born at 12:01 on Christmas morning!

When Holly isn’t writing Christmas books for children and their families, she’s scooping snow cones from her food truck in Santa Claus, Indiana. She lives with her partner – who is a Zamboni driver – in a white dome house that looks just like an igloo. And she’s owned by two Samoyeds named Nicholas and Rudolph.

(psssst! Holly Berry-Byrd is actually a pen name for the Cottage Door Press team who worked on this book.)

I’m Daniela Sosa, a freelance illustrator originally from Romania and currently based in Cambridge, UK.
I am a graduate of the Children’s Book Illustrations MA course at the Cambridge School of Art.

My main focus is children’s books, but I also enjoy doing other types of illustration work. I work mostly digitally but like to create the look of traditional media in my illustrations.

When I’m not illustrating, I enjoy nature walks, old pubs and crafty projects.

Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children’s books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones––exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow.

We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read.

To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible.
