Heather B. Moon was born in Royton, Lancashire and is married with two grown up children and three beautiful grandchildren. After teaching for some time in the Oldham area, Heather acquired her own school in the north of England. She now spends time at her villa in Lanzarote and walking the South West coast path close to her home in Cornwall. Heather's passion for animals is greatly expressed in her writing. 'I believe that wild animals should enjoy their freedom and not be held in captivity for entertainment purposes. I also believe in signing every petition there is for banning certain pesticides that harm our insects and birds. We all have a responsibility. Our world is like a tapestry...if one little thread becomes unravelled then the whole planet may fall apart.'
