Today: Antje Taylor. Antje was born and raised in Germany. She emigrated to Australia over 10 years ago and now lives in Brisbane with her husband Craig and their two young children, Lars and Pip. Antje works as a management consultant. She enjoys traveling, loves canoeing, spending time on the beach and reading books - both for herself and for her children.


The idea of "Friends Don't Like Roaring" came to her as she watched her son in the playground. He did not know how to talk to other children and interact with them, so he roared at them. After telling Lars a story about a roaring dinosaur, Antje put the story to paper and the little dinosaur named Lap came to life.
