Laurie Melrose (that's me!) is the author of Willow Wood, a middle grade fantasy. I discovered a magical world while living in the village of Mendocino in Northern California. A ship wreck, a beach of sea glass, a miniature forest - all inspired me to share Caitlin’s fantastic adventures with readers. 

I now live in the Sierra foothills.

Here I am at the fish monger's shop before leaving on the ferry to Iona, Scotland.

Willow Wood  

When twelve-year-old Caitlin O’Toole learns that she’s part Fairy, and royalty to boot, will she jump for joy or hide in bed for the rest of summer?
 
Find everything you love under one book cover! Summer vacation, horses, Fairies, adventure...and the answer! 

Visit the world of Willow Wood where anything is possible.
