Julia Finley Mosca is a copywriter and former journalist who spent
more than a decade in Hollywood crafting messages for money. After
working with such recognizable brands as Entertainment Tonight,
Yahoo!, American Greetings, and JibJab, she landed her most
rewarding job yet—mom to one ferociously curious and spunky little
girl. The Amazing Scientists series marks Mosca's debut into the
magical world of children's books.
Daniel Rieley is a British freelance illustrator based in Lisbon.
After studying at The Arts Institute Bournemouth, taking an epic
backpacking adventure in Australia, and working three years in
London, he decided to take off to sunny Portugal. For the last two
years, Rieley has been working on several illustration projects in
advertising, print, card design, and children's picture books. When
Rieley is not drawing you can probably find him trying to catch
waves, taking photos with old cameras, or playing his newly
discovered sport Padel.
