Laura T. Barnes lives in a converted barn on her farm, Barnesyard, in Hunterdon County, New Jersey.  Many of the farm animals live on the ground floor of the barn while Laura and her husband live in the top floors.  Ideas for the stories and tales stem from day-to-day life watching and loving her animals at Barnesyard.

"I only write my books, the animals create the story."

Carol A. Camburn has illustrated several children's books.  One of her newest books One Dollar, My First Book About Money (1998) entertains children while they learn to understand and count money.  Carol lives in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, along with her horse, Billy, her cats Cherokee and Shadow, and her therapy dog Piper.
