Patricia St John's life is a story in itself but she grew up to become one of the world's best-loved Christian writers for children. When looking after thirty children in a boarding school, her exciting bedtime stories were favourites with the children.

They were later to become her classic stories, Tanglewood's Secret and Treasures of the Snow. Every place that she called home was the inspiration for yet another story that brought children to understand and love the Lord Jesus Christ.

Irene Howat is an award-winning author and a talented artist in Ayrshire, Scotland. She is married to a retired minister and they have a grown-up family. She especially enjoys receiving letters and replies to all of them; check out her new stories at www.story-a-month-club.org.uk.

If you know the stories written by Patricia St John, you will enjoy reading about her life and finding out why and when she wrote those stories. She was not a stay-at-home writer, she wrote about things and places she knew. Her parents were missionaries in Brazil, South America and when her Mother brought the older children home and Patricia was born, they lived with Grandmother and Great –grandmother at Malvern, one year they spent in Switzerland and that is where Patricia started school. Back in Malvern and to a school where her Aunt taught and later became Headmistress, till on leaving school she trained as a nurse, but on returning to Malvern she was persuaded to become a housemother to thirty young children who were boarders at her Aunt’s school. This experience stood her in good stead when she went out to Tangier to help her doctor brother and when he married she started missionary work among the villagers.....and so the story continues! A thoroughly good read!
