Behind the Book
Lindy Mattice
Lindy has always had a deep love for animals. When she was just seven years old, her family joined a wildlife rehabilitation organization where Lindy spent countless hours caring for young, orphaned animals who were eventually released back into the wild. She also worked with a local group as a pet detective helping train dogs to search for lost pets. She was a member of the FFA (Future Farmers of America) organization where she competed on the horse judging team and showed sheep. Lindy received her Bachelor of Science Degree in Agriculture Science from Cal Poly. She currently resides in Bakersfield, California, with her husband and three children. She loves their family’s two dogs and cat and her weekly horseback riding lessons.
