Eva Dunavan and her husband, Joe, reside on an East Central Illinois farm. Her farm experience and their travels inspire her story ideas. She has a Master of Education degree from the University of Illinois and a diploma from the Institute of Children’s Literature in Redding, Connecticut. She has taught for thirty-six years (kindergarten to seventh grade) and understands the importance of children grasping the concepts of boundaries in relationships. Choices and consequences are showcased in her stories. With a touch of humor, she develops her characters; and they model concepts of loving, sharing, caring and learning to establish boundaries.
