About the author

Ann H. Gabhart grew up on a farm in Kentucky. At the age of ten, she started dreaming of being a writer. That dream has come true as she's published over forty novels. She and her husband have three children married to three beautiful in-law children who have gifted her nine grandchildren. She still lives on a farm not far from where she grew up. She loves visiting with family, walking her dog, reading, and, of course, writing.
She has a variety of historical fiction from stories about the Shakers that once had villages in Kentucky to stories inspired by her small town and her mother's memories to those set in the Appalachian region of Kentucky. She enjoys sharing the lovely areas and history of her home state of Kentucky. And if you like mysteries, you can try her Hidden Springs Mysteries published under the author name, A.H. Gabhart.

Reviews

[Ann Gabhart]

This was my first book for young adult readers. When my historicals stopped attracting editors' interest because they were -in their words - "too clean," I decided to try a different direction in writing. I enjoyed writing for young people. I liked throwing in all sorts of odd plot lines, etc. This one has a Big Foot in it and a dog named Maybe.
