Author description

Yvonne Morrison Wellington-based writer, Yvonne Morrison, is a first-time author with Scholastic but has been published before by Shortland Publications and Weldon Owen ltd. Yvonne writes of this work "I was overseas when I wrote this book, knowing I wouldn't be home for Christmas and feeling a bit nostalgic. As it turned out, I had a wonderful, but very different, Christmas in the snow." Deborah Hinde Auckland-based illustrator, Deborah Hinde, had already worked on a similar project with another writer and we were so captured by her artwork that we asked her to work on Yvonne's story instead. After reading the text she readily agreed.
