About Felicia Snyman Du Toit:
Drawing her inspiration predominantly from her experiences as a divorce attorney and intimate conversations with those she cherishes, Felicia has a unique ability to recognize the melancholic aspects of life that hold potential for heartwarming conclusions.
Having tied the knot with her soulmate, Jeandré, Felicia describes her life as one from a fairytale. Their blissful union saw her becoming the proud mother of a lovely daughter, and together, along with their pet Riley, they live their own 'happily ever after'.
Embarking on her writing career at the tender age of 26, Felicia's debut works have been published under the Romanza banner, a subsidiary of Lapa Publishers, which is part of the larger Penguin Random House SA (Pty) Ltd family.
As a token of her journey's milestones, she has a unique tradition of photographing the first copies of each book alongside Riley, her Boston Terrier.
About the Book:
The central character, Adelie, has a best friend like no other - her Boston Terrier, Riley. Riley, with his playful nature, often gets the 'zoomies' and is infamous for leaving behind rather fragrant 'STINKbombs'.
For Adelie and Riley, there's no cap to the adventures they undertake. Even their backyard transforms into a mystical land, home to various monsters and peculiar creatures.
With this latest addition to her repertoire, Felicia Snyman Du Toit continues to enthrall readers, proving that stories, especially those shared with furry friends, have an unparalleled magic of their own.
