One of Newfoundland's finest poets, Tom Dawe is also an editor,
former teacher, visual artist and award-winning children's author.
He spent years collecting folklore throughout Newfoundland and
Labrador; many of these stories have found their way into this
collection of ghostly tales. He lives in Conception Bay South,
Newfoundland.
Born in Sofia, Bulgaria, Veselina Tomova graduated from Leipzig's
School of Graphic Art and Book Design before moving to
Newfoundland. She has illustrated books in Germany, Bulgaria and
Canada, including the children's books Star's Island, Maggie &
Hero, An Old Man's Winter Night: Ghostly tales and Spirited Away:
Fairy stories of old Newfoundland. She lives in St. John's,
Newfoundland, in a small house overlooking the harbour.
"Spirited Away is a book to be enjoyed in front of a cozy fire or tucked up on the sofa with a hot water bottle, somewhere very safe and far from the spirits depicted and described so that the horrors are far away--though there is always the possibility that one is lurking under the bed... a deliciously scary thought. Highly Recommended."-- "CM Magazine"
