Kaye Arnott lives in Palmerston North, New Zealand. This is her fourth children's picture book. Kaye has always enjoyed writing in rhyme and has carried this on in the latest book. The story was written and illustrated in 2015 but has been shelved until now. Kaye has never played basketball but used to take her two sons to watch the basketball in Palmerston North and enjoyed the whole experience of supporting one's local team and being immersed in the hype and excitement of the game. It has been most enjoyable making this story come alive.
