Eloise Wilkin was een Amerikaanse illustratrice, het best bekend om haar werk voor Little Golden Books. Haar illustraties in aquarel en met kleurpotlood worden geprezen om hun stralende weergave van baby's, peuters en hun ouders in idyllische landelijke en huiselijke omgevingen. Veel van de prentenboeken die zij illustreerde, zijn klassiekers van de Amerikaanse kinderliteratuur geworden. Haar werk blijft zeer gewild en wordt gewaardeerd om haar unieke vermogen om onschuld en warmte vast te leggen.
