Since Dale was 8 years old, she has been totally obsessed by Antarctica. She owes it to her school teacher who infected her with his own love of the 7th continent.

She has been there three times; twice to the Ross Sea and would return in the blink of an eye.

All her books would make great Christmas Presents and can be signed by the author at the markets. Great that you can meet and have conversations with Dale at the markets.

She also likes to use her hands under Curramore Crafty Creations.
