Patricia St John's life is a story in itself but she grew up to become one of the world's best-loved Christian writers for children. When looking after thirty children in a boarding school, her exciting bedtime stories were favourites with the children.
They were later to become her classic stories, Tanglewood's Secret and Treasures of the Snow. Every place that she called home was the inspiration for yet another story that brought children to understand and love the Lord Jesus Christ.
