Samantha lives in Norfolk with her husband, four children, two dogs, several chickens and two fish. She plays the piano, enjoys long walks with her dogs, loves cycling and is an avid reader. It has always been Samantha's ambition to write a children's book. Finally, she took the plunge and wrote Madder's World, combining her writing and the artistic talents of her daughter (Avril) together to bring you this book. With a head packed full of ideas for a sequel and with two other stories in the pipeline, she hopes this book will be a success, paving the way for all her future projects.
