Author Notes:Anthony France, who has published three books for children in the U.K., works as a public relations executive. He says, "I found the idea of a little rat suffering from the bathrobe blues an irresistible start to the story. The rest was based on a friend's real-life experience. Many of my stories are about getting along with friends and neighbors, and FROM ME TO YOU shows how we have to work at our friendships and not take them for granted."

Tiphanie Beeke has illustrated books and greeting cards and has worked as an interior designer for children. She says, "What I love about illustrating is being able to create an imaginary world on paper, and From Me to You gave me a great opportunity to do that. I love the texture and color I see in nature and hope to capture some of it in my paintings."
