Hayley Down is the author of children's books including i Explore Space and My Pad Bible Stick & Colour. Clare Fennell is a UK based illustrator with 15 years of experience. Clare works mainly in collage, recycling bits of magazine, fabrics, newspapers and anything else she can find! The collage is mixed with painted elements and finished digitally. Her imagery has a quirky, fun appeal and is particularly suited to picture books, greetings cards, stationery and editorial. Clare works from home in her studio, where her two children and two cats constantly inspire her. Coleen Murtagh Paratore is the author of two picture books that have been published in the US. She lives in Albany, New York, with her husband and three sons. She is a hopeless romantic and life-long believer in the magic of Cape Cod where THE WEDDING PLANNER'S DAUGHTER is set.

Cool Mom Picks: Another standout is BIG, with fabulous collage illustrations by Clare Fennell and a nice story by author Colleen Paratore. It would be an excellent big sibling gift as you can imagine or even a little sibling book, really. The idea is that big isn t measured in how tall you are, but how bright, healthy, and imaginative you are being the biggest YOU you can be."
