Biographie de l'auteur

Burleigh Muten started to share her exploration of the divine role of women through the ages when she founded Hands of the Goddess Press, compiling and publishing her own calendars. This is her second title for Barefoot Books, joining the well-received Grandmothers' Stories (1999). Burleigh makes her home in Amherst, Massachusetts, USA. Helen Cann is a graduate from the School of Art, Wales. She is a full-time illustrator and her rich artwork has been exhibited in several European counties and the United States. Her watercolour, collage and graphite images adorn many Barefoot Books, among them: The Barefoot Book of Mother and Daughter Tales (1996), The Barefoot Book of Father and Daughter Tales (1997), The Barefoot Book of Mother and Son Tales (1998) and The Barefoot Book of Father and Son Tales (1998).
