Hazel is the author of books for young readers. This fantasy is for young adults and may be enjoyed by all age readers. Her imagination stems from reminiscing her childhood (as Hazel Lilford) in Sabie, a scenically beautiful small village, in South Africa. Growing up in a natural, adventuresome, environment conjured many ideas for stories and fantasies. Through great-grandad Bill's narrative on his 100th birthday, we get to know him, his twin sister Annie and Lucy, his great-granddaughter. Lucy believes her 'Gramps,' as she calls him, is the best storyteller ever. This is his story. Hazel has traveled extensively and lived in England for twelve years. She now lives in Victoria B.C. Some parallel to experience is evident in the fantasy.
