Spirited little George wants to be many things: a bird with wings, a whale with a wide tail, a monkey with long and strong arms, and a lion with a golden mane. But at the end of the day, George just wants to be a little boy, to be cuddled tightly in his mothers arms, and to listen to stories. The repetitive prose storyline, along with its lively and dynamic illustrations, make it easy to follow and simple to remember. It appeals to parents who want their children to be free-spirited and adventurous and, at the same time, to be themselves.
Coral Walker--who now resides in a picturesque village near the River Taff in Cardiff, Wales--was raised in southern China. Writing and drawing have been two constant loves in her life. For many years, she juggled being a mother, a full-time academic teaching computer science, and an artist. She first ventured into children's illustration to keep her own children entertained. Once she started, she couldn't stop. Throughout the years, she has tried various mediums, including watercolor, acrylic, and oil painting.
