Jan Steins was born in Somerset, England. She is currently living in Germany with husband Dieter. Children, Gary and Carly emigrated to New Zealand 8 years ago. The book was originally written for the Grandchildren. Due to the wonderful response from Grand-daughter Hana and Jan's friends she was encouraged to share the story to other children worldwide. Jan's wonderful imagination and descriptive words make it easy for children to get totally absorbed into the adventures of the two Angels on Tipolypop Island.
