The author resides in Michigan where she is a middle-school teacher of world languages. Numerous trips abroad have enhanced her writing and teaching. She has written collections for youth; numerous limericks; romantic poems on orchids, cacti, and other flowers; tributes to various people and events; hymns and praise choruses. This volume follows volume one, on animals from the Western Hemisphere, and volume two, featuring species from Africa and Europe. She was fascinated with the mammals and birds from Australia and environs and found herself falling in love with the lovely honeycreepers of the Hawaiian islands, whose habitat has been disturbed, almost beyond repair. As she finds herself looking for solutions—miraculous or mundane—to the plight of many creatures, she hopes that you will be inspired to do the same.
