Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Ilse De Keyzer (1980) from Tielt-Winge, Belgium, is a secondary school teacher of Dutch, history, and religion. While she enjoys writing various types of stories, she has more recently been crafting humorous animal tales. Capibarry, for example, the owners of a capybara, the largest rodent in the world, think they’ve let a dog into their house. Ilse is the proud owner of a dachshund, who was the inspiration for her "Dachshund Tokkel" series.

Dana Martens (1983) grew up in Zonhoven, Belgium, in a beautiful wooded area that has inspired her illustrations. Her two aunts, both artists, instilled an artistic passion in Dana from a young age. After earning bachelor’s degrees in economics and bio-aesthetics, Dana became a schoolteacher. For 14 years, she combined this job with being a makeup artist instructor. When her friend Ilse De Keyzer told Dana she was looking for an illustrator who could match the style of her story about the famous Loch Ness monster, the pair decided to travel to Scotland together. There, Dana managed to capture the incredible natural beauty through illustration.
