Autorenporträt
Mark Will grew up in Toronto, and lives there now with his wife and daughter. He was an NCAA hockey player and is a long-time hockey instructor and coach. He's spent thousands of hours in hockey rinks teaching hundreds of children how to skate. This book, his first, is based on his own childhood memory of skating for the first time. He is so grateful to Catherine (his Grade 6 teacher!) for collaborating on this story. In the daytime, Mark teaches high school history. In the nighttime, he sleeps-because sleep is important for our health, and we should all zzzzzz... Catherine is a retired art educator and lives in Maple, Ontario, where she spends her days focused on family and the creative arts. Painting and playing music are her passions, and she loves having the time to develop as an artist. The creative process of illustrating this book brought back exciting childhood memories of a skating rink and the joyful times she spent with her 3 children in their early years. She is thankful for the many students, like Mark, who made a difference and gave her inspiration and purpose in this world.
