Come Walk With Me (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781719361040)

Born in North Carolina and transplanted to California, Julia Cline has written poetry, memoir and short stories since childhood. With a biology teacher for a mother and a father who loved to wander the woods on the weekends, she grew attached to the flora, fauna, dampness and shade of the natural areas in North Carolina. Now she explores the dry, sun-filled hills of California. And, as her parents filled their yard with the native plants of North Carolina, Julia and her husband now fill their yard with California natives. Julia also writes and illustrates picture books. Her latest picture book, Kotobuki, tells the story of an energetic kitten and the family he exhausts. Both Julia's written and visual work are fueled by her love of the out-of-doors and the beings that enrich her life, be they feline, canine, human, domesticated or completely wild.
