About the Author

Angela Joy has always been fascinated with nature and beaches. She has coupled her love of those beaches with her life experience raising a teenager with autism. She was determined to create her own story and illustrations for an adult audience of those who have special needs, and fueled by that desire, she worked until it was done. This special book takes place in the Florida Everglades and the Gulf of Mexico, both places near and dear to Joy's heart.

Joy was born in Portland, Maine. While in her early 30s, she moved to central Florida, where she still resides today. She is a practiced cosmetologist, having been in the profession for over 20 years. Her hobbies include bike riding, nature walks, kayaking, drawing, coloring, and photography; she also enjoys traveling and listening to a wide variety of music. She also has a great love for reptiles.
