Celeste J. Ross
Celeste, the original Curly Top character, grew up with her parents and three brothers on her great-grandfather's farmland in Pennsylvania. She took an interest in writing at a very early age, keeping diaries and journals since the age of eight. An elementary and Montessori middle school teacher for over 10 years, writing, reading, and storytelling were among her favorite subjects to teach. Celeste has also practiced integrative healthcare for nearly 30 years and holds a Bachelor's in Elementary Education, Certification in Secondary Montessori Education, and a Master's in Health Arts & Sciences. She also serves as an educational consultant, works with families with special needs, and offers an online course in self-care.

Celeste J. Ross
Patty grew up in North Dakota, drawing unique, cheerful illustrations that make people smile. This self-taught artist creates comical portrayals of Northwood’s animals and other natural creatures, which are her signature images. Patricia creates a personality for each of her characters - the moose, black bear, and raccoons seem to enjoy camping, canoeing, and hiking. Her grapes take pleasure in frolicking in a “pool” of wine and her flamingos strut their stuff dressed as fancy Divas. Patty attended UND and Moorhead State University in MN, majoring in commercial art and graphic design. Check out her other work on Facebook at PattyKobetskyPaintings.
