Follow the journey of the Pacific Salmon from stream to sea and back again through thoughtfully written narrative by award-winning children's songwriters Bobs & LoLo and enjoy vibrant and engaging visuals by illustrator Lori Joy Smith.

Bobs & LoLo are five-time JUNO Award nominated singer-songwriters as well as the creators and stars of two upbeat, musical preschool TV and VOD series, Sing, Dance and Play and Action Packed. Robyn Hardy (Bobs) and Lorraine Pond (LoLo) first met at a summer camp on Vancouver Island. Growing up together, they have always shared a love of the natural world and a passion for working with children. Creating Bobs & LoLo has allowed them to combine their diverse academic backgrounds with a mutual love of teaching and the creative arts. Alongside the adoration of the young and the young at heart, Bobs & LoLo have received critical acclaim from the likes of the Parents' Choice Foundation, Western Canadian Music Alliance, the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada and the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences.

Lori Joy Smith credits weekly trips to the local children's library with her father for sparking an early love for reading and children's books. As a teenager she lived in Italy and visited some of the most beautiful museums in Europe, which left her wanting nothing more than to make art. Now she puts these two loves together everyday, working as an artist and illustrator. Lori lives on PEI with her husband, 2 daughters and a growing menagerie of pets-3 cats, 2 bunnies, 1 dog and 2 sheep. She loves making art, walking in the forest, watching the stars, drinking coffee, growing flowers and most of all reading with her own girls.
