Machida Naoko is a picture book author and painter who brings together fear and humor, beauty and mystery in her work. Her books feature distinctive cats who appear as protagonists or unforgettable supporting characters. Her personal motto, “Cats at Every Turn,” reflects a mindset in which cats naturally fill any spare moment or space.
