About the Author

Juliette MacIver lives north of Wellington City with her husband and four children. She majored in linguistics at university, took a detour and became a bicycle courier for a year, then went back to university to complete a diploma in teaching English. She taught for five years before quitting and starting a government job, which she left once her first child was born. Juliette has always written little pieces, frequently in rhyme, and has had "write a children s story"on her List Of Things I Want To Do In My Life for a very long time. This is her first picture book with Walker Books.

About the Illustrator

Cat Chapman grew up in rural Waikato and moved to Auckland as a teenager. She gained a Bachelor of Design majoring in Photography and after a brief stint as a wedding photographer and an English teacher in Japan, she worked for a number of years at a design company. In 2010 she attended a night course in children's illustration which was shortly followed by a contract for her first book from Walker Books Australia. She currently works full-time chasing after her young son and illustrating books. Cat enjoys working quickly with ink, pen and water colour, and enjoys creating characters that are full of movement, humour and personality. She is often caught with a strangely contorted face as she unwittingly mimics the characters expression she is drawing. Cat and her family currently live in Auckland.
Industry Reviews
A guffawing read-along with a smart taste for verbiage. * Kirkus Reviews *
Chapman's watercolor-and-ink illustrations convey the sweetness and nonstop activity of the various animals, as well as the lushness of the jungle. * Booklist *
The rollicking text and animated illustrations are great in this book but it's how frog chooses to wear his undies that really makes me snort-laugh. * My Little Bookcase *
[Juliet] has woven a lot of winning ingredients into this hardback with colour movement and humour. * Newcastle Herald - Weekender *
The gentle chants and repetitive language create catchy rhythms that will engage young audiences and have them reading along with excitement and laughter. * Newcastle's Child- Renee Price *
A fun rhyming story. * Readings Monthly *
This book really is one that you won't mind reading time and time again. * Tots to Teens *
