About the Author

Victoria Pearle Hart is a young, old person. By that, I mean she is not a right out of literary arts school and eager to prove she can write. She wanted to write, but life just got in the way. It wasn’t until she was in her fifties that she learned how to use a computer and wrote this book. She loves nature and all it has to offer in every season. To watch the earth, awake in spring, turn green, and bring the warmth that turns into summer. Autumn brings all the colours of the trees and plants as they prepare to sleep. Winter turns everything white with the hope of sledding, skating, skiing, just having fun. Due to an accident, she is unable to enjoy winter anymore but still loves to watch the seasons come and go. Just like life, the seasons come and go. She enjoys knitting and crocheting, mainly for the babies coming into the family. Loves to make cakes and decorate them for special occasions. Weddings and anniversaries. Her favourite time of year is Christmas—she loves the decorations and lights all around the house. She even decorates her bathroom for Christmas. Victoria is a happy person who loves to laugh and play with her family and grandchildren
