O'Loughlin, Aislinn: - "Aislinn O'Loughlin grew up in Dublin, on a diet of fairy tales and horror stories - often at the same time. (Her biggest fear was the Big Bad Wolf escaping his story to eat her.) After writing several books in her teens, Aislinn worked as a storyteller and creative-writing teacher, before moving to Toronto, where she sometimes took her kids to daycare in a sled. (Yes, really!) These days, she lives in Waterford with her scientist husband, three brilliant children and two evil genius cats. The Big Bad Wolf is welcome any time"
