About this title

About the Authors

Lisa Guy is a graduate of UC San Diego with a BA in Communications, a past business co-owner, and mother of five. From a young age, Lisa has had an interest in people and their development - especially young children. After her third child was born, she stopped working outside the home and immersed herself in the lives of little ones. This book is a culmination of her efforts and experiences. Her belief in the collaborative process has brought many voices together to exemplify a myriad of ideas and valuable parenting principles. Lisa believes that the best way to ensure that a child will develop into a happy and productive adult is to have committed and supportive parents/caregivers and community, whom he or she can trust, speak to and learn from throughout the childhood years.

From an early age, Cameron Shields worked alongside her father in his art studio, as he fulfilled his responsibilities as Art Director for an advertising firm. Ever-encouraging of her interest in the study of nature, he spent time with her walking and collecting samples of pond water, leaves, flowers and other remnants of nature which they examined at home under a microscope, and Cammy spent hours analyzing and drawing. After a career in healthcare and then later teaching science at the university level, Cammy resumed her passion for connecting with nature, and exploring her environment through art, and began the practices of birdwatching and watercolor painting. Her whimsical illustrations are a result of her explorations, and bring readers on a meditative journey along California's Central Coast.
