Frankie Taynell
Frankie comes from Cardiff, South Wales, but has lived in Derbyshire most of her adult life. Frankie has always had a love of children’s picture books. As a teacher, she told or read hundreds of stories to classes of avid listeners. In retirement, Frankie continues to tell stories to her grandchildren, but she felt that she had a story to write too. This story is inspired by an event that happened in her garden in Derbyshire, many years ago, but had until now remained unwritten.
