Susanna Isern grew up
among mountains in the Spanish Pyrenees. When she was little, her
favorite hobby was to run around, discovering incredible insects and
helping sick or endangered animals. It was then that animals started to
whisper her stories, which she hurried to write in the notebook she
always carried with her. She is the author of many children's books,
most of them distributed internationally and translated into over a
dozen languages. She has been awarded the Silver Medal in the Moonbeam
Children's Book Awards 2013 in the USA.
