About the Author

Gerald "Jerry" Thomas Ruff (1954 - 2021) was an editor, teacher and author based in La Crosse, WI. Jerry retired in March 2020, and he thoroughly enjoyed the freedom to use his time as he wanted. Jerry passed away unexpectedly in March 2021, at the age of 66. He spent the last year of his life working on numerous creative endeavors, writing poetry, children's stories and editing for friends. These books will be an everlasting gift for families and children.

Katrijn Jacobs (1978) from Dendermonde, Belgium is an art teacher in secondary education and mother of three children. As a little girl, no surface was safe. She drew everywhere she could, even on the walls. However, she only pursued her passion relatively late in life. In 2018, she obtained a degree in Illustrative Design in Sint-Niklaas. Katrijn loves to experiment and creates illustrations on various surfaces: paper, glass, porcelain. . . With her playful, cheerful style, she wants to bring a ray of happiness and color to the world. Emotions, people, and nature inspire her enormously. She enjoys exploring analog and digital creation separately, but also bringing together the strengths of both. Based on the premise that anything is possible, she focuses on the present in order to be open to what is yet to come. In the meantime, she enjoys every project that comes her way.
