Jane Kurtz

    Jane Kurtz se inspira en su crianza única en una aldea etíope, donde una infancia llena de aventuras al aire libre y narración de historias moldeó su perspectiva. Le tomó casi dos décadas después de regresar a los Estados Unidos encontrar su voz a través de las palabras, traduciendo estas profundas experiencias en narrativa. Su prolífico cuerpo de trabajo, que abarca varios géneros, a menudo explora temas de memoria, observación e investigación. Kurtz transforma magistralmente los recuerdos personales y las experiencias de vida en historias convincentes que resuenan con lectores de todas las edades. Su escritura es un testimonio de su habilidad para plasmar temas complejos en narrativas accesibles e impactantes.

      Ten-year-old Lanie loves science and nature, but she has a problem: she's an "outside" girl with an "inside" family. She longs get out and go camping, but they all want to stay home. It wouldn't be so bad if her best friend was around, but she's halfway around the world, living out their dream of studying wildlife. Lanie feels she never gets to have any adventures-anywhere. But when her favorite aunt comes to stay, Lanie discovers that the wonders of nature are everywhere-even in her own backyard.
