About the Author: Sandra J. Corneau grew up in the town of Russell, just outside of Ottawa, Canada. After working many years in the government, her love of travel and sense of adventure fueled her next challenge. She moved to China to teach English to young children. Living in small rural towns, it was there that the idea for this book took shape, from thoughts and feelings she had harboured for many years. This is her first published children's book. She now lives back in Ottawa with her two fur babies, Moka and Skye, enjoys landscaping, renovating and being creative. Of course, her passport is always ready for the next travel adventure.
