Tim Warnes (Papa Bear) and his wife, illustrator Jane Chapman (Mama Bear), live in the Dorset countryside with their son, Noah (Little Bear). Tim explains, My Christian faith is important to my life, thus I leaped at the opportunity to draw Jesus Loves Me! when asked how he felt about illustrating this book. Tim's chickens in the photos are from his own garden. Award-winning illustrator Tim Warnes has been published in over twenty countries and has over forty picture books in print. His debut book with Simon & Schuster is this one.
