Graphic designer and writer, Dani Tate-Stratton is a reluctant farmer and avid traveller. Take Shelter: At Home Around the World (Orca $19.95), Tate-Stratton's first book, explores ways people live in the world and beyond. Whether houses have wings, wheels, float, are made of straw, snow or ice, societies adapt their shelters to fit their surroundings in many innovative ways.

Her second book is Christmas: From Solstice to Santa (Orca Origins 2018) and examines the many reasons for this celebration in various parts of the world.
