"Enemy under Our Roof is dedicated to three Canadian war veterans, and concludes with a moving tribute by Anthony Lemke to one of the liberators, William McKeever. Affectionately known as ""Uncle Bill"" to the children, he billeted with Johanna's family for four months after the liberation of Hengelo (O). By hailing Canada as the land of opportunity, he encouraged them to emigrate to Canada, and offered to become their sponsor. In the summer of 1953, Johanna and her family reunited with ""Uncle Bill"", putting down new roots in the town of Brockville on the majestic Saint Lawrence River. As a retired elementary school teacher, Johanna took writing courses at Algonquin College and the University of Ottawa. At Carleton University, she studied Children's Literature as part of her combined English/German major. She is a member of the online WriteforKids/CBI organization and a regular contributor of articles and children's stories to her church's quarterly magazine. When she is not writing, Johanna enjoys reading, research, nature, architecture, science, classical music, theatre, art, and travel."
