Born in Boulder, Colorado, at the tail end of the 1960s, Melinda Busch grew up in a house full of books. She remembers them overflowing the bookshelves and stacked along the walls of her dad's den, and any shopping trip invariably ended with a visit to the bookstore. From a young age, she loved listening to her dad read from the works of JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis, and many others. Her childhood imagination teemed with hobbits and dragons, talking beasts, and all manner of faerie. As a mother, a grandmother, a teacher, a story-teller, and a writer, her hope is to inspire the hearts and minds of children with her love of Story. Melinda lives in Southern California with her husband, her son, and four crazy mutts.
..".It is in the top few of the best children's books I've seen in my 40 years of reading to children. I'm always searching for great books for little ones that aren't dumbed down or agenda-driven. Just great literature populated by great characters. Beautiful artwork too!" --Janet Williams Maxim
