Om forfatteren

Indiana-born author Annie Fellows Johnston was the creator of several series of children's books that attained widespread popularity in the early twentieth century. Along the lines of "Anne of Green Gables," the charming novel "Georgina of the Rainbows" will cast an enchanting spell on girls looking for something more timeless and classic than the tween drama and supernatural fluff passed off as juvenile fiction these days. This novel was written for and about young ladies, though it has been and likely always will be a classic for the whole family.
