Information-packed but never didactic, this moving narrative describes the life of a Palestinian girl. Fluid writing and straightforward storytelling make this a pleasure to read, despite the sensitive subject matter. (Fiction. YA)

Hi!
Welcome to my web site

I receive many letters from readers and requests for presentations. This web site will hopefully answer your questions about my books, plus tell you how to contact me to speak to your school/library/conference/writing group – something I love to do!

“After the presentation, kids flooded the library to get her books.”
Heather Thorne, Librarian, Kingston, Nova Scotia.

"Anne Carter expertly developed a warm rapport with the OAC students in which they shared the frustration and joy of the writer's life and craft."
Brenda Halliday, Librarian
