about me
If you are a true enthusiast of animal stories, then you are at the right place. Its a literary realm of the most talented and skilful author, Andrea Barclay, known for her passion toward telling stories. Andrea lives in Camberley, a lovely town in Surrey, England. With its pretty streets, friendly people, and green parks, Camberley gives Andrea lots of ideas for her fun and creative stories for kids.
Andrea showcases special fondness for Basset Hounds, dogs that have those long ears, big eyes and very gentle personas. She always had such beautiful dogs in her house, and it has been a significant part of her life. They ease her with laughter through their funny actions, and they are loyal, which makes them a good source and inspiration for what she writes.
Andrea has always enjoyed herself when she is writing, as far as she can recall. She began writing both poetry and prose at a younger age and has improved her ability to create not only creative but entertaining stories with time. Andrea just posted the two things she loves most—basset hounds and writing—so she decided to combine them. Thus, she began writing a kids’ book called Bertie the Basset, which is a series of entertaining and emotionally cheerful stories about a dog and his activities.
Meet Bertie the Basset
Bertie is a happy and curious Basset Hound who loves going on adventures. Thanks to Andrea’s imagination, Bertie feels real and brings joy to young readers with his fun personality and exciting stories. Each book in the series is made to make kids smile, spark their curiosity, and help them enjoy the magic of reading.
Andrea’s stories are made especially for young readers. The fun characters and relatable ideas are written in simple and exciting language, making the books great for families to read together or for kids who are starting to read on their own. The books are designed with big, clear letters that are easy to read, helping kids feel confident and enjoy their reading experience.
Andrea’s Vision and Inspiration
Andrea wants to write stories that are fun and make kids feel inspired. Through Bertie’s adventures, she hopes to help children enjoy reading and spark their imaginations. The stories also teach simple lessons about being a good friend, being kind, and helping others, all told through the eyes of Bertie and his animal friends.
Andrea lives in Camberley, a lovely town that gives her lots of ideas for her stories. She enjoys walking in local parks or exploring nearby woods, and these experiences often become part of the adventures she writes about, making her stories feel real and special.
Looking ahead, Andrea is thrilled to keep working on the Bertie the Basset series. With every new book, she hopes to bring joy to more kids, spread more smiles, and create special memories for families everywhere. Andrea is thankful to her readers for being part of this fun adventure and invites everyone to enjoy the exciting world of Bertie and his friends.
