The author has always lived in a lovely seaside town on the most easterly point of Great Britain, Lowestoft in Suffolk. She grew up with her siblings--four brothers and one sister. She has always enjoyed writing short stories and began to write these down when her children came along. She is happily married and now living in a village just miles from her hometown. Now, she is retired and, with the encouragement of her daughter, she has found much pleasure in submitting her collection of stories for publication so that other children can enjoy the adventures of Percy and his friends.
