About the Authors:
Jamie Lee Curtis loves big words but doesn't know how to spell many of them. She adores her family life, which includes the amazing Annie, the miraculous Tom and the hilarious and loving Christopher. She advocates for children around the world and appreciates her friends, family and colleagues. She lives in stunning and sunny southern California with her rotund dog, Frances.
Laura Cornell is a competent speller but sometimes has to look up Jamie's big words in the dictionary. She left stunning and sunny southern California to reside in soaring and spectacular New York City. She is oh so lucky to be mom to serene and wise Lilly. They have two semi-vicious cats, Indie and Brownie. |
