Susanne Coutts is a mother of three, an educator, and a lifelong storyteller.
As an elementary school teacher, she discovered that stories were one of the best ways to teach lessons, spark meaningful discussions, and help children learn about themselves and others. As someone who often found herself creating structure in the middle of joyful chaos, she understands Bear very well. She is also learning, little by little, to reconnect with her inner Crane. Susanne now works as an author and educational consultant. She lives in Toronto with her husband Duncan and two orange cats. Bear and Crane is her first book.
