ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Margaret Penner Toews was born to a somber Mennonite minister, John M. and Helen Penner, the youngest of seven children. As a young girl she often found comfort in poetry, whether reading, reciting, or writing. She finished her formal education in the one room school she’d attended all her eight school years. She was a true writer in the sense that anything that touched her, and most things did deeply, had to find expression, whether through song, poetry or prose. She published her first book of poetry, "Footprints" in 1968.
