sIBANI (aUTHOR) 

Sibani Karki is an Environment and Gender specialist in Washington, DC. She's a Fufu (Aunt in Nepali) to her favorite humans, Kaia and Yara, who love hearing stories about her adventures in Nepal, South Africa, and Peru, to name a few. Sibani weaved Momo & Uncle Yeti in her head - and on many cafe napkins - while attending graduate school at Columbia University, in New York City. Sibani and her friends frequently indulged in as many cuisines as possible - just like Uncle Yeti! Their adventurous outings created a lifetime of cherishable memories. Momo & Uncle Yeti represent these memorable gatherings filled with shared laughter, friendship, and scrumptious food while plotting their very next adventure - whether big or small.

oLEG (iLLUSTRATOR)

Oleg Goncharov lives in the Crimean peninsula (located in Eastern Europe) where beautiful mountain ranges run parallel to the south-eastern coast. Though the mountains in Crimea are not as tall, or snow-capped, as Momo’s native Nepal, they are still very beautiful. Oleg often climbs the peaks near his home and gazes at the surrounding sea and cities below. On his treck back down the mountains, he always makes sure to devour different cuisines, such as Armenian, Georgian, Greek, Russian, Tatar, and Ukrainian. With many tasty eateries near his home, he invites you to try them all when you visit Crimea! When Oleg isn’t mountain exploring, he can be found illustrating beautiful books for authors around the world.
