Angela Toniolo is a picture book author and qualified teacher. She lives in Australia with her husband, son and cat. When she’s not dreaming up stories inspired by the world around her, she’s making a lot of noise on her drumkit or playing with the cat. Her first picture book, Mavis, the Little Plane Spotter, was inspired by the brave and eager children who volunteered to help the war effort at home during World War II by keeping their eyes on the skies for enemy aircraft.
