Autor

Hazel Larcombe is an avid reader, she loves to read stories to young children and see their excitement and enjoyment in the plots and pictures. Hazel is a well-travelled retired widow, an octogenarian, and is blessed with many grand and great-grandchildren. Born in South Africa, she spent her childhood and teens living in a small village in a scenically beautiful environment, where she enjoyed many adventures and shared in all the delights that nature provided. She then lived in England for a number of years, where she enjoyed the wonderful countryside. Having damselflies rest on her shoulder like confetti while she walked beside the hedgerows picking blackberries, and singing along with all the songbirds that live there, was magical. In her imagination, she'd see a gnome dart under the hedgerow ahead of her and would wonder if fairies lived there, too. This is what inspired her to write Stumbler. She now lives in Victoria, BC, Canada. She had great pleasure for years doing craftwork: making soft sculpture dolls, teddy bears, and other sewing creations for fetes and charities. As she is no longer able to do craftwork, writing is her passion now; she completed a writer's course that benefited her in learning a new kind of craft. In bringing characters to life, she hopes to provide joy to readers of all ages. Her first book, the fantasy The Magic Dumligo, is being republished and is now available.
