Richardson, Chelsea: - "CHELSEA RICHARDSON is the author of The Dog with the Crooked Tail series. She is a writer, educator, and musician from Vancouver Island, Canada, who spends her days playing with words. Chelsea wrote her first book by observing the quirky behaviour of her two small dogs - with a focus on the mischievous personality of Buddy, the Dog with the Crooked Tail. She loves to take her dogs on hiking and camping adventures, and marvels in the funny things they do in each moment. Chelsea has great memories of writing silly stories with her oldest niece, and now her second niece and two nephews as well, who all share her love of reading and writing! In her free time, Chelsea enjoys outdoor adventures with dogs, mountain biking, gardening, yoga, and playing guitar by a cozy fire. (Buddy is the official taste-tester of the garden produce).

You can follow the adventures of Buddy, Ladybug, and their Momma C on Instagram and Facebook at @dogwiththecrookedtail - and join in on the fun. Chelsea is planning a 4-part series and a picture book, with the second story to feature Buddy's best friend, Ladybug. We look forward to sharing our upcoming little crooked tales with you!"
