Maryanne Wood's Bio:
Former professional dog trainer turned author. I was inspired to write a series of children's books about my basset hounds, Randall and Hunter to encourage young children to flow with the changes that live brings us all. Resilience and adaptability are important life skills. Everyday Randall and Hunter taught me how to move through life with more grace.
I was most certainly a late bloomer to the word of becoming a published author. I'm 66 years of age and I strongly believe it is never too late to beginning something new, follow your bliss and live life to the fullest. When I'm not writing, I enjoy walks in the woods with my latest canine companion Willow. the chocolate lab.
