To this day, even though I am a grown man, I am scared of him." said Frans. "I never mention his real name!" "I don't mind my Mother's Welsh faeries," added Rene, "but the Spriggans are different. They tease me whenever I step out into the garden." If believing is seeing, thought Polly, who felt sorry for her aunt, "I'll find You-know-Who and ask him to chase the Spriggans right out of Rene's life!"…mehr

'This is a charming story from Africa that brings to mind many distant feelings, recollections, and memories. It is well written with believable child appeal.' - RJMD
Autorenporträt
Soon after we married my husband took me by the hand and led me to the wild places where he worked as a game ranger and a biologist. I was in heaven and although I was an artist the natural places and wild animals around me held so much interest that I wanted to write for children. Little was written for children at that time and I wanted to pass my knowledge on. Shuter&Shooter published my Taffy Tales (now out of date) as a school reader and perhaps The Elephant Buttons can be used the same way. Taffy Tales was made into a school play and became a tape for the blind. I have written stories all my life but have not been successful in publishing them. D2D gives me that chance.
