About the Author

Victor Villaseñor, bestselling author of Rain of Gold, grew up in the Barrio of Carlsbad, California with his family and beloved Yaqui Indian mamagrande. He didn’t speak English when he started school and flunked the third grade twice. He was in his forties when he learned he is dyslexic off the charts auditorily and visually and that’s why he didn’t learn to read until he was in his twenties. Victor currently resides on his family’s historic rancho in Oceanside, California.

Jack Wiens has illustrated over forty books and wrote and illustrated his own inspirational book, What Bear Said About Life, Love, and Other Stuff  (Torchflame Books). He currently lives in Ashland, Oregon where he spends time in nature and in his art studio.
