Canyon comes out of Eileen Cameron's love for the canyon lands of America's west, which she has hiked and explored extensively. An ardent preservationist, she has worked to conserve both our natural and historical resources. Canyon is Eileen Cameron's first book for children.

Michael Collier lives in Flagstaff, Arizona where he also works as a family physician. Canyon is his first children's book.
