Carrie Pyykkonen and Linda Washington

Inside The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe:
Myths, Mysteries, and Magic from the Chronicles of Narnia
(with James Stuart Bell)

Carrie Pyykkonen is anxiously waiting for a lifetimer that grants extra time while living in Wheaton, Illinois, with her husband, two children, four cats (two are visitors), and a dog named Wilfred. She has dabbled in writing due to Lindas nagging, volunteers by wearing a long garment called an alb, and spends a lot of money on animal food. (Please buy more books so sweet little Samantha can eat.) This is her second book project that involves talking animals and fantastical creatures for which she still has no use. She plans on spending more time photographing her animals in pink dresses and parasols.

Linda Washington is a freelance writer living in Carol Stream, Illinois, who has authored or coauthored thirty-eight books. She still mooches food from the Pyykkonens on Sundays and keeps adding to her increasingly large library of nonsense books, DVDs, and music. She became a huge fan of Terry Pratchett, thanks to (see dedication). She aspires to find the perfect cookie, own her own flying machine, and flee the newest trend of her friends, which is to acquire odd pets.

This bibliography is by no means exhaustive.

Lewis, Christopher Paolini, Charles Dickens, William Shakespeare, Tad Williams, Juliet Marillier, Anne McCaffrey, and Ngaio Marsh, who have multiple books to their credit or books in their series not printed as of the publication of this book, we chose to list only one to three titles in a particular series.
