Lindsay King is an Ojibway storyteller and teacher. She holds an ECE diploma, a bachelor's degree in Education, and a qualification in Special Education. Her knowledge and passion for natural medicines has now led her to also pursue nursing. As a student, Lindsay loved books and storytelling. Her most cherished memories from school were visits from Elders in the community sitting down with her and sharing stories. She's grateful for the privilege to now share stories with her daughter and her students. Lindsay is a member of and resides on Pikangikum First Nation in Northern Ontario, Canada.

"...sure to be a favorite for classroom read-alouds and is an excellent addition to classroom libraries hoping to amplify Indigenous voices... Frank's colorful watercolor illustrations featuring emotive animals and human characters are the perfect match for King's text, which moves deftly from one brief story to the next without any loss of coherence." -- Children's Literature, A CLCD Company
