Her father, John Horvath, taught high school biology. She said: " remember writing from the time was about 8. t was a natural thing for me. always wanted to be a writer." She started sending books to publishers when she was 14. Several publishers were interested but wanted her to rewrite the books. Finally, her mother wrote the publishers, telling them that this writer was only a child. When she was 18, she moved to Canada to learn to teach ballet. n "Everything on a Waffle," Primrose refuses to believe that her parents are truly lost at sea. She finds comfort with her freespirited uncle and the owner of a very strange restaurant.

They have a horse, Zayda, and a dog, Keena, a smooth collie. They live in Metchosin, British Columbia, Canada. The first book Several knee surgeries convinced her not to dance anymore, although she continued to teach it. When she was 23, she sent in ''An Occasional Cow." At the publisher's request, she spent seven years rewriting it before it was finally published. By then she was working on her second book, pregnant with her first daughter and still teaching ballet. She spent three more years teaching ballet, and then quit to write full time. Time and place to read: " can't fall asleep without reading in bed at least a couple of hours a night. have done this since learned to read. My girls are the same."
