Author Deborah is a nurse, whose lifelong love affair with animals and nature has sustained her through difficult times, and made the good times more joyous. A whimsical imagination has her seeing seeing friendly faces all around us. The desire for others to be comforted and nurtured by their own creative imagination is what inspired her to write this book.
