About This Book
More than anything, author Patricia Reilly Giff wanted to learn about the grandmother she never knew. Piecing together the clues she learns from family stories and old photographs, she retraces her grandmother's steps back to the place where she was born.About the Authors or Illustrators
Patricia Reilly Giff began her life in Brooklyn, New York surrounded by books! As a child Giff would prefer to have her nose in a book imagining the life of each character rather than playing with the other children. Some of her favorite childhood reads included Little Women, The Secret Garden, and the Black Stallion books, the Sue Barton books, and the Nancy Drew series. So it's no surprise that she knew early on that she wanted to be a writer.
