About the Author

---

Chris Manning's first book, George and Condi: The Last Decayed is a politically charged collection of poems inspired by events which transpired over the first ten years of this century. Her second book, Beaver Tales and a Canada Goosing, is a candid series of poems representing a distinctively Canadian perspective on world events, the current state of western society and on Canada itself with parody thrown in for good measure. In her three-part series, To the Shore of a Child's Ocean, (with companion youth fantasy novel, Vodianoi) she portrays one Canadian family's journey through the dynamic educational culture that is homeschooling. Her novel, Spirit Grove, is another youth fantasy novel with environmental verve. Chris Manning and her family have made Vancouver Island their home since 1996. ArtisanPacificPublishing@gmail.com
