About the Author

The Author, Illustrator, Father Mike, is otherwise known as the Reverend Canon Michael G. Carr, Canon Ordinary of the United Episcopal Church and editor of that organization's official publication, GLAD TIDINGS. It was, while in his capacity, he began entering a regular cartoon feature known as ''Mus Ecclesia'' which is the Latin terminology for ''Church Mice.'' He was encouraged to put a collection of these cartoons in book form, but, instead, began writing a series of books for children, about one of his beloved characters, ''Bartholomew.''

Father Mike was born in England and emigrated to the United States, following the end of World War II. He now lives, and pastors a church in Northwest Florida.
