M. Sarah Klise draws and paints in her studio in Berkeley, California, where she lives with two cats. In addition to her work as an illustrator, Sarah Klise teaches drawing to children and adults in San Franciscos Chinatown. Kate and Sarah are sisters who have previously collaborated on illustrated novels for children. Their most recent picture book, Why Do You Cry?, was published in 2006.
