Alison Donald is the author of The New LiBEARian. After years of scribbling story ideas on envelopes and scrap paper, she joined the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators, and their support helped her writing take off. She also works as a paediatric occupational therapist and has over ten years of experience helping children with special needs. Born and raised in Ontario, she now lives in the UK with her husband and their three children.
