Melanie Lasoff Levs
Author Melanie Lasoff Levs enjoyed writing each
of the Hot Dots Tots books, but the farm and safari
stories are her favorites—she playfully named the
characters after the children in her own family, which
includes two sons and a daughter. Though Melanie has
not been on a safari, she and her husband love taking
their children to the zoo in their hometown of Atlanta.

Gabriele Tafuni
As a child in his native Italy, Gabriele Tafuni
dreaded going to the doctor and was scared of
getting shots. He tried to help other kids with the
same fear by depicting a happy boy wiggling his
fingers and toes on the doctor’s table, and it turned
out to be his favorite illustration in the book!
