The author, John H. Brown, was born in Weymouth, Dorset, in 1940 and was brought up in wartime Britain. He lived and worked in Weymouth until 1965 when he moved to Southend-on-Sea, Essex, married a local girl and has lived there ever since. John has four older sisters, the youngest being two years his senior. As they were so close in age they went to bed around about the same time, from which came the storytelling - if his sister was unable to get to sleep, John would make up stories to tell her!
