Author Notes: Rebecca Ashdown lived right by the sea for most of her childhood. As the youngest in a family of five, she grew up in a full house, which enabled her (and her siblings) to spend a lot of time getting into trouble; however, drawing and writing were always her real passions. She lives in England.
