About the author

Born in Wales, Anne Norman moved to Canada at a young age and spent much of her young life “pollywogging” near the Scarborough Bluffs. Grew a lot of little frogs but no princes sprang from these, as far as she knows. Supposedly a grownup now, she finds her cats and birds to be (mostly) patient companions, though they are sometimes heard sniggering when she suffers from writer’s block. She lives in southern Ontario with no current blocks, and plots her next book.
