Kathleen Whitham, who holds an AB degree from Indiana University and graduate degrees from the University of North Carolina, was a French and Spanish teacher for over forty years. She is presently the owner and pastry chef of a pie and pastry business in Hillsborough NC. However, she considers her role as the mother of five sons and the grandmother of eight as the role of greatest importance in her life. For the past several years, she has enjoyed writing books for her grandchildren, many with a holiday theme, and this has been the inspiration for the books she has published so far. She hopes that you and the children in your life enjoys this book as much as she enjoyed creating it.
