About this title

About the Author

Donald Gruby>/b> grew up in the small rural town of Eden, South Dakota. His first collection of poems, A Little of Eden, recalls the days of his youth, many of which were spent at the town's filling station in the company of old timers who taught Don the meaning of a well-lived life.
After spending four years with the US Army's 82nd Airborne, Don returned to Minneapolis to attend Dunwoody Technical Institute, where he studied tool and die making. He has worked in manufacturing for twenty years, currently as a Production Coordinator in Ramsey, Minnesota. Just as his previous collection drew on his early days in Eden, A Knight Rides On grew out of Don's courtship with his wife-to-be, Phyllis. They married in April 2005.
Don is currently working on his next collection of poetry, as well as on a children's story.

Nichol Brausen's illustrations bring this modern-day fairy tale to life. She is a graduate of Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota, and studied in Florence, Italy, as well as at the Peninsula Art School in Door County, Wisconsin. Nichol notes that she enjoys "healing young lives through artistic expression" with Free Arts Minnesota.
