Meet the Author

Shelley O’Brien is an educator in southeastern Manitoba, whose love for all things fantasy-adventure led her to write her first children’s story. Her quirky verse is reminiscent of a meeting between Cindy Lou Who and Bilbo Baggins. 

A self-described tree-huggin’, critter-lovin’, nature-groovin’ granola girl, the author lives in a field in the middle of nowhere with her husband, son, dragons, leprechauns, and pillywiggins.

Meet the Illustrator

Neil Klassen is a visual art educator and illustrator. He may look like a grown-up, but he never really got there. In secret, he is a knight, a monster slayer, and a dreamer. The illustrator is inspired by folklore, mythology, and legends, and also by the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Brian Froud.

This is the first collaboration for Shelley and Neil.
If you live in Southeast Manitoba, you may purchase a copy of the book via curbside pickup at Sunshine Nursery.
