Autorenporträt
Christine Hunt Daniell has always loved words, and writing that celebrates imagination and initiative for tackling problems and relating to the world. These words are dedicated to her children and grandchildren, and their immense imagination and initiative. She DID have a Christmas pony/swing catastrophe as a child, but the rest of this story is pure make-up! Other writing by Christine Hunt Daniell includes the prose-poem "Do The Hills Talk?", poems and stories for the New Zealand School Journal, children's TV, and four adult oral history books: "Something In The Hills," "Speaking A Silence," "I'm 95 - Any Objection?" and "Just An Orange Fro Christmas." She has an MA (Hons) in English from Canterbury University, New Zealand, lives in rural Wairarapa, New Zealand, and calls the hills of Nelson and Wairarapa her home.
