Nancy Scott: Having spent the first half of her life in British Columbia and the next half in Virginia, Nancy and her husband have embarked on a new chapter to be closer to their daughter, son-in-law, and three amazing grandchildren in North Augusta, South Carolina. Nancy's background includes a degree in French from UBC, a master's degree in Education from UMW, and 25 years teaching grades 3-8 and Gifted Education. Nancy hopes this book is read often and with great enthusiasm, laughter, and fun, after which she imagines readers far and wide sharing an apple or two with a friend. Anne Danielson: Classically trained as a chemical engineer, Anne left her industrial job to focus on being a loving mother of her three children. Anne's children love reading, and even more, making their own stories and expressing themselves through imaginative play with their favorite stuffed animals. Anne draws inspiration during these special moments and hopes to inspire kids through story to have compassion for others no matter how different they, or their problems, may be.
