Produktbeschreibung

What is it like to be a girl who's gifted? Set against the background of the holiday season, this is a story of what it truly means to understand your own unique gift and how you can share it. When music prodigy Sam Hae Park, age 11, finds herself unexpectedly stranded at her best friend's house by a winter storm, she gets the special gift she's always been denied - a real family Christmas. This gift comes with promises made and kept, secrets hidden and revealed and special gifts shared. For Sam, her best friend Morley and the Star family, it will be a holiday that is both eye-opening and life-changing. An earlier edition of this book was published as Sam's Gift. Gifted is the third in a heartwarming series of realistic novels that take place in a small seaside town. It's a place where nothing - and everything - happens for real girls with big dreams! A coming-of-age novel series to enchant grade 5 and middle school readers ages 10 to 13. About the Author Jacquelyn Johnson writes the kind of stories for girls she wishes were available when she was 11 or 12. It's such a vivid time of discovery, especially about who you are and how you can shine in the world, she says. "It's the time when you first find your own true voice, and how to use it. That's what this series is all about." Following careers as a teacher, journalist, and magazine editor, she returned to her first love, writing novels. She lives with her family in a small village near the sea not unlike Seabright, with a little cat surprisingly similar to Morley's Feather.

Autorenporträt

Jacquelyn Johnson writes the kind of stories for girls she wishes were available when she was 11 or 12. "It's such a vivid time of discovery, especially about who you are and how you can shine in the world," she says. "It's the time when you first find your own true voice, and how to use it. That's what this series is all about." Following careers as a teacher, journalist and magazine editor, she 'retired' to her first love, writing novels. She lives with her family in a small village near the sea not unlike Seabright, with a little cat surprisingly similar to Morley's Feather.
