About the Author

Helen Manos is the award-winning author of many books for children, including the picture book Samsara Dog illustrated by Julie Vivas, junior fiction novels Roller Blaze, Iron Lace, Snapshots, Spider Killer and Me and a collection of short stories Rules of the Game. This book came about after Helen worked with Tibetan refugees in Dharamsala in the lower Himalayas. She was very moved by the plight of people who have lost everything: homes, animals, country and a very old way of life. She was especially moved by their gentle, spirited resettling of Buddhist schools, monasteries and nunneries which lie at the heart of their culture. The superb watercolour illustrations of Julie Vivas are loved by children and adults in Australia and overseas. Perhaps best known for the best selling Possum Magic, written by Mem Fox, Julie has illustrated stories by many well-known Australian authors, including The Tram to Bondi Beach by Libby Hathorn and Stories From Our Street by Richard Tulloch. Her work has received numerous awards nd commendations, and in 1992 Julie was awarded the Dromkeen Medal for her significant contribution to the appreciation and development of children's literature.
