Author Information

Christine Chambers lives in Littlehampton with her husband, teenage son and two rescue cats, Toby and Summer. As well as Christine having social media, so do her cats. A Facebook page was created over ten years ago when they were both shot with an air rifle. Luckily both cats survived, although Toby has one less eye now. Christine is very passionate about animals and their well-being. This is one of the reasons why she decided to write about animals for her first book, Red Fox Does What? Surely Not!. She says, “Foxes get bad press sometimes. I wanted to write about a fox in a positive way.” Arctic Fox Opens A Magical Ice Cream Shop is the second book in the Red Fox Does What? Surely Not! series. -- Publisher: Candy Jar Books
