Ame Dyckman is a New York Times bestselling author whose work includes Wolfie the BunnyYou Don’t Want a Unicorn!You Don’t Want a Dragon!That’s Life!, and more. Ame didn’t have to quest far for the inspiration for Tiny Barbarian’s characters, especially Tiny and his super-supportive family. (Ame’s own “barbarian horde” patiently puts up with Ame as she tries to “CONQUER EVERYTHING!” and when she wears the colander—I mean, shining helmet!—on her head.)
