About the Book

I came to New Zealand when I was 17 and studied at one of the local colleges. My English teacher (Ms Marian) has inspired me for my writing. I still remember at one of the free-willed topic stories we were required to write at that time. I got an A+ for that story that came with a comment saying, “Keep writing, it will be a waste if you stop!” Today I’m grateful for her inspiration. Otherwise I won’t be where I’m today publishing my own book. I love drawing since I was ten. Sometimes I like drawing cartoon characters such as Garfield, Tweety Bird and Bugs Bunny. At other times I like drawing just plants, flowers or trees. I find my peace of mind by drawing them. In my story “A Tree’s Dream” I wanted to contribute more towards the story, so that’s how the illustration came to my mind. Now I’m married to a wonderful husband with two lovely kids. I thank my husband for the love and support. I also thank my elder son who is always eager to become my first reader of the stories I wrote. He always wants me to read to him after I’ve finished them. Sometimes I do made-up bedtime stories for him before he goes to bed. I remember the time I did a different version of “The Sword in the Stone”, we had lots of fun.
