Autorenporträt
When Marty Meyer-Gad decided to retire from income producing work to write she and her husband moved to Mankato, MN from rural Sherburne County. Her writing reflects decades of living in Sherburne County, allowing her to create the town of Whistlestop within that county. The Kimsara Detective Agency series was inspired by Marty's time teaching. She found seventh graders to be quite capable of understanding the world and making creative, positive impacts on it. She also found that books were lacking that touched on matters that concerned her students like: suicide, homosexuality, and grief. While written for all ages, Kimsara Detective Agency: Daddy? can be used as springboards to approach difficult subjects including grief, suicide, alcoholism, homelessness, identity, and sexual orientation.
