Rachel Forbes is the author of The Haunting That Helped, a thoughtful children’s story about fear, kindness and finding unexpected help in unusual places.

As the founder of Northkind Press and Northkind Story Studio, Rachel creates books and resources that encourage children and adults to explore their imaginations, express themselves and tell the stories that matter to them. Her work is shaped by creativity, motherhood, life in the North of England and her experience of adapting to physical disability.
