John Bray is an author of stories for children. Typically he writes picture books and has recently started to dabble a bit in middle grade fiction. Sometimes he also draws, but those drawings usually don't turn out how he thinks they will. John lives in St. Charles, IL. Josh Cleland is an illustrator working out of his home studio just outside of Portland, Oregon, where he resides with his wife, Rayna, and creative director/dog, Newman. His work has been featured in various children's magazines, including Highlights and Storytime, as well as on greeting cards, websites, billboards, and more. Some of his recent illustrated children's books include I Want a Real Bike in Oregon; Go, New York, Go!; Trick-or-Treat Songs; TAD; and Portland Baby.
Cleland's illustrations are ... a perfect fit for the playful, lively text that explains the good and bad elements of concluding things without ever talking down to its audience. An engaging book about accepting endings and celebrating beginnings. - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) * Kirkus Reviews (starred review) *
