Gloria Whelan

Gloria Whelan was born in 1923 in Michigan and has remained there throughout her life and writing career. She lives in a somewhat isolated cottage on the edge of a lake and writes (when the snow is not a couple of feet high) in her "Secret Garden." She was born six years before my own mother, which makes her 87 years old...and still writing prolificly! Bravo Gloria Whelan! I love your writing AND your stories....and so do my students!
