   I originated from England and since arriving in Canada have travelled and resided in many of this country’s provinces.

Currently living in beautiful British Columbia, I spend part of the year in the Cascade mountain area of Northern Washington, USA, where I enjoy walking with my northern canine friend and howling to the moon with the coyotes around the campfire.

What People Say

What a fantastic story! You follow an orphaned boy throughout his life as he deals with hardship, survival, and love after World War 2. I’m an emotional person, but I will still warn you that this book is a tear jerker.

This is definitely one of those books that I will forever keep in my library, and take it out to read again and again over the years
