Pamela SaulThe author was born in Yorkshire and grew up in a small village on the edge of the moors. She taught high school in England before emigrating to British Columbia with her husband, where she continued her career as an art educator and artist in PrinceGeorge and Penticton.

She was inspired to write this book by her love for young people, and the adventurous lives of her her own children and grandchildren, and by the times spent on her father's sea-going boat as a child. She now lives in beautiful Salmon Arm and enjoys travel, gardening, music, reading and bird-watching. Read More Read Less
