About the Author:

As a child growing up in San Diego, internationally published author Sheri McGregor remembers lying in the grass watching tiny bug worlds crawl by. As an adult, she still watches bugs . . . and sometimes feels just as tiny among the big trees, majestic mountains, and free-flowing waters in San Diego County. Authoring this hiking book allows her to do what she likes to do--explore and write!
