Linda M BlackshawLinda is a Scottish grandmother who loved reading to her children. Now she reads to her grandchildren who like her to make up stories and read from books. Several years ago, she saw a picture of odd socks on top of sticks, stuck in the sand. When shewas going to a workshop 'Writing for Children', the picture came to mind and the Sand Bear was born. She has ideas for two more 'Eric' books and one nearly finished book 'Billabong Clean Up.'

Apart from her passion for writing, reading and her family, Linda loves public speaking and next year has enrolled in a year-long art class. Read More Read Less
