About the author

The author's three children had grown up and his eldest had two of her own, Isobelle and Oscar.
Their imagination knew no boundaries. Every cupboard was a 'den', a sheet draped over objects, a tent, not to mention the fun they had with their toys! The author worked on this and wrote several books around them. What a joy.
