Elaine Vanderberg, grew up in St. Joseph, MI, went to Kalamazoo college and graduated from MSU where she met her husband. Together they were blessed with three children, five grandchildren and two great-grandsons. When her 7-year old granddaughter asked for a bedtime story, Elaine, a voracious reader since childhood, found a story coming to mind. Years later she submitted it and surprisingly found it accepted. Now there are three more stories in the series to join the first. The stories are meant to tell children “Believe in yourself, no matter the obstacles.” Elaine now lives on the shores of beautiful Crystal Lake, Frankfort Michigan with her cats.
