About The Author
Marion McAdam is a retired consultant who spent most of her career in the corporate world. Before finding her niche in strategy execution, she worked in the areas of organizational effectiveness, human resources, investments, corporate communications and early childhood education.
Marion lives on the West Coast of British Columbia with her husband in the peaceful historic village of Ladner, not far from Vancouver. They are surrounded by many exceptionally well-behaved plants, art collected over the years and books of all genres. When not reading or writing, she is out hiking, puttering in her patio garden or traveling—always with a camera in hand.
As a parent, she nurtured a sense of curiosity and interest through stories and through a love of reading. The Jeffrey and Bob Adventures were developed from stories she told her son on long road trips over 35 years ago. The idea of the stories endured and her family finally convinced her to write them down. Sheep on the Lam is the first book in the series.
