Laurie Eichorst is a product of the Pacific Northwest, and claims that the beautiful outdoors helps her creativity. For as long as she can remember, Laurie has been writing stories about fairies, princesses, and anything else that came to mind. Laurie believes having a moral or life lesson in her stories is very important to helping develop and teach children.
Laurie was fortunate enough to meet and collaborate with Betty Dean, a Portland area illustrator specializing in watercolor illustrations. As a team, the two have created two books for children, "The Silk Fairy," and, "The Princess with the heart of Ice," as well as "The Little Bunny Who Wanted To Fly."
