Pop-Up Surprise One Little Pumpkin - Tapa dura

Acerca de los autores

It is no wonder that Rosa Von Feder loves to write Halloween books for children - she was born on October 31 in Sleepy Hollow, New York. When Rosa isn't writing children's books, she coaches storytelling at her community theater and curates an heirloom patch of pumpkins. She still lives near the Hudson River, with her family and at least one ghost.

(psssst! Rosa Von Feder is actually a pen name for the Cottage Door Press team who worked on this book.)

Junissa Bianda is an illustrator from Indonesia with a passion for art! Rarely do you see her without a colored pencil and a sketchbook in her grasp. In the past, she proclaimed herself a professional scribbler, as she was known for scribbling on her friends' school notebooks. At first, she couldn't figure out which specific art field she loved the most. As a result, she enrolled in a number of art classes like oil painting, manga, 3d animation, and chose graphic design for her undergraduate degree. Her work can be identified as very whimsical and colorful. This is what later made her realize that her quirks fit quite well with children's illustration. Therefore she decided to get a graduate degree in children's book illustration at the Academy of Art University. That became her passion leading up to today. Now graduated and finally settling down in Indonesia with her mom, 5 siblings and two cats, she's ready to publish another children's book, and also venture into greeting cards and product licensing.

Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones--exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow.

We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read.

To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible.
