About the Author

Amy Catherine Walton (1849 – 1939) became well-known by the pen name as Mrs. O. F. Walton. She was one of the most popular authors of Christian children’s books in the latter part of the 19th century and the early 20th century.  Most of her books were fictional stories, but not exclusively. Walton lived in England and was the daughter of an Anglican minister. She spent a considerable number of years living in Jerusalem, where she gained considerable familiarity with Hebrew culture and studied biblical background materials.
