Norm McDougallNorm McDougall, author of The Adventures of Willow, was inspired to write this collection of stories by his grandkids Kieran, Ryker, Andrew, and Moira. One snowy December, Moira and her gaga (grandpa) were playing in a park when she created the charaters of Willow and Billow. During the early months of the pandemic, Gaga would write one chapter a week to send to his grandkids. After he shared the stories with his sister-in law, Ailwin Boulet, she was inspired to add her wonderful illustrations to the stories.

Ailwin grew up in a creative home where sewing, carving, and exploring were the norm. As a child, her dream was to draw cartoons for Walt Disney. This is her first work as an illustrator, and Ailwin is thrilled to have been part of this project. When she isn't creating, Ailwin shares her life with Marjorie and Rosco the dog in Edmonton, Alberta. Read More Read Less
