Canadian author France Adams has always been a storyteller-even as a young girl, she loved sharing tales with her dolls before bedtime. Many years later, during a stay in Australia, she rediscovered the magical world of oral storytelling. She has since enraptured thousands of Canadian children with her passionate, imaginative books, which she has presented in schools and numerous festivals across the country.
