Valerie Boever was born in Marinette, Wisconsin. She is oldest of four children. Val spent her early childhood and grade school years in Illinois. During much of that time her family lived on five acres with lavish landscaping. This country home provided endless activities for active imaginative children, and fostered a lifetime appreciation for the beauty of nature, trees and flowers. It was during this time her love for dogs developed, with the adoption of several, including a malamute. A fan of the Iditarod Sled Dog Race, Val decided to combine her love of literature and education to create the story of Margaret and Midnight: The Alaska Malamute, fashioned after a real young lady and personal friend.Alaska is a wonderful place for a young girl and her dog to live. Margaret and Midnight grow to be the best of friends while learning lessons in life.
