Autorenporträt
Cynthia is a retired human rights lawyer, and she has always championed the belief that everyone, no matter the colour of their skin, their religion, their ethnicity, their sexual orientation, or whether they are disabled, deserves to be treated equally under the law and with dignity and respect by others. Cynthia is often found working in her garden, where she loves to feed the birds and squirrels and care for the fish in her pond. This love of nature and her human rights work have inspired her to write children's books that use animal stories to help encourage respect and tolerance. Cynthia currently lives with her husband Andre, and best fur friend, Moe the bulldog, in Shawnigan Lake, north of Victoria, British Columbia. Cynthia feels strongly that children require constant reminders by parents, teachers, and friends of the need for kindness in the world. Cynthia is also an amateur photographer who loves to take photos of nature in and around Vancouver Island.
