Samantha Van De Kerckhove enjoys drawing, painting, and telling stories. She was inspired to combine her passions to create Lola’s Woolly Jumper—a gift to her beloved niece and nephews. The term “woolly jumper” is a nod to their Irish heritage. Born on the Canadian prairies, Samantha is an avid adventurer who spends most of her time studying rocks and camping in the wilderness of northern Saskatchewan—often at the same time.
