Micol Ostow is often too loud. She lives and writes in Brooklyn, New York (which is also noisy and colorful in the best possible way), with her husband and two exuberant daughters. Sullivan, Who is Always Too Loud is her first picture book.
Brian Biggs is the illustrator of approximately one bazillion children's books, someof which he also wrote (such as The Space Walk and Everything Goes). Brian creates his pictures in an old, one-story garage studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He lives with his wife and teenage kids nearby in a three-story house, right next to some very noisy neighbors.
