Margaret’s love of reading came from her father, Robert, who read to her every night when she was a little girl. She carried on reading when she was sent to boarding school in Edinburgh at the age of 10, from the various rubber plantations she grew up on with her parents and siblings in Cameroon (formally known as the British Southern Cameroons). Her childhood enjoyment of a good story inspired her to write this book.
