Beryl E. Organ, born in Bristol in 1928, has been devoted to animals and flowers all her life. For many years she ran a modelling agency. In later life she took up writing and over the years she has produced a series of children's books, all focusing on the natural world - some in prose, some in verse. An accomplished artist, she paints pictures of animals, birds and flowers, from pet dogs and cats to wild birds and butterflies, and accompanies them with short poems and stories. Our Woodland Friends is Mrs Organ's fourth children's book. It introduces children aged 6-10 to the animals and birds which might be spotted on a walk in the forest, each illustrated by a charming portrait of the animal and accompanied by descriptive verse. Older children will enjoy reading them, while younger ones will delight in hearing them read and looking at the pictures. Mrs Organ is working on two further books for children entitled Animal Antics and ABC of Flowers. With her son Colin, a professional photographer, she has also compiled Reflections, a collection of verses accompanying delightful photographs of rural and garden scenes. All her books are dedicated to her great grandchildren.
