Author, Colleen Barksdale is a retired teacher and grandmother. She lives on wooded acreage in northern Minnesota, about which she wrote her first children's book, "The Little Woods Runner," inspired by her granddaughter Dajah. The inspiration for her present book comes from her growing up years with her parents and siblings. Colleen's hope is that many will find laughter in the comical look at her father's vocation, blended with a sense of humor he embodied.
