    Vickianne Caswellová se prostřednictvím svých knih snaží předat dětem lásku a radost ze zvířat, které sama s rodinou zažívá na své farmě. Její psaní, inspirované zájmem jejího otce o literaturu a láskou k přírodě, se zaměřuje na příběhy zvířat, zejména na sérii "Freckles the Bunny". Tato série, jejíž vznik byl motivován vzpomínkou na oblíbeného králíka a zkušenostmi její dcery se šikanou, zábavnou formou učí děti o zvládání životních výzev. Caswellová také rozšiřuje svou tvorbu o sérii "Sherlock the Remarkable Cat", která oslavuje jedinečnost a vnitřní hodnotu navzdory vnějším rozdílům.
