About the author
Lawrence Jackson was fascinated by the natural world. He grew up in the foothills of the Rockies, travelled extensively around the world, and lived near the sea in Newfoundland and Labrador for 27 years. Although much of his life was spent writing on science and nature for adults, Lawrence was always eager to share with children his deep interest in "how things work".
