From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 79.82.209.53 (talk) at 23:00, 2 March 2017 (The previous version of this article stated that she "is the author of a children's novel", I corrected so that it now states that she "is the author of several children's novels", since it is the truth. She actually penned many of them.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.
