ABOUT THE AUTHOR:



A Note From Wanda:


Ever since I was a child, I wanted to be a writer. When I was in the second grade, I wrote my first poem about a moth. Luckily, I received encouragement from my teacher. During my teen years, I wrote skits that my church teen group performed during special holidays.


It wasn’t until 1980, that I took a course on writing for children and teenagers. I became serious about a career as an author. Soon after that, I began to write stories, articles, poems, and devotionals, which appeared in a variety of Christian publications. Later, I had 5 books of puppet/ventriloquist scripts published. *These books are currently available by contacting me. (wanda@wandabrunstetter.com).


My first novel was released by Barbour Publishing’s book club, Heartsong Presents, in Dec. 1997. I have now written nearly fifty books, with over 4 million books in print. Many of the novels I've written are Amish-themed.




ABOUT THE BOOK




Life for Kelly McGregor is a daily drudge of driving her overbearing father’s mules along Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Canal. She dreams of one day owning an art gallery where her own drawings and paintings are on display. But these dreams don’t include marriage. . .not after seeing what her father has done to her mother. How then can Mike Cooper, a general store owner, make her realize he is different than her father and wants to support her artistic talent? Will Kelly learn that dreams can walk hand in hand with a love created by God?

I think it's wonderful when a teacher recognizes the talent of a student at a young age. The support of Wanda's teacher led her to sell over 4 million books.

You have a great day too, old friend. :-)

Nicole, I am blessed by your visit. Your comment certainly has me thinking about all the kids I have worked with over the years, and wondering if I had done enough to encourage them on. Several of those kids have gone on to write books of their own, and others have gone on to the ministry. I don't know if I have another Wanda among them, but it is a wonderful thought.

Blessings to you!
