Jean Horst has always been passionate about reading and writing. Born in Waterloo, Ontario, she grew up summering along the sandy shores of Lake Huron, where she fell in love with nature—a topic that often crops up in her writing. She married in 1970 and then gave birth to two sons. Once they were in school, Horst joined her husband in the family construction business, which spurred her interest in designing and building custom homes.

Now a grandmother, Horst has spent a lot of time traveling in recent years, including an extended four-month stint in China. She combines her love of nature and travel to write imaginative, entertaining stories for children—her grandchildren, in particular. Her latest offering is Best Bedtime Rhymes: New Poems for Kids to Love.
