About the author
Deborah Felder is an American author, who’s contributed some titles to the Treasured Horses series. I’ve included Christmas in Silver Lake (1997) in the bibliography; although by Colleen Hubbard, the story is by Deborah Felder. Felder has also written adaptations of classics like The Three Musketeers and Anne of Green Gables, as well as non fiction, such as Century of Women : the Most Influential Events in Twentieth-Century Women’s History (1999).
