Stephanie Blake's passion for writing and illustrating began in childhood when she created books for her brothers and sisters as birthday presents. As a child, she also fell in love with the books of Dr. Seuss, Ludwig Bemelmans, and William Steig. After moving to France, she discovered other writers and artists whose work continued to inspire her stories and drawings. She is the author and illustrator of dozens of highly successful books in France, many of them children's favorites.

"Guaranteed to elicit plenty of chuckles and more than a little head scratching, this entertaining tale of friendship, loyalty and affection will delight young fans of Simon, the little rabbit with lots of personality." -- Book Trust "Blake's bold, richly coloured illustrations depict the facial expressions and body language of Simon and his friends perfectly." -- Outside In World "This simple, funny story provides a good opportunity to reassure everyone how it's not shameful to have those 'little visitors' and to talk about how they can be treated." -- Red Reading Hub
