Do you live in one of the countries that Dorothy Gilman writers about? Of course, I live in the U.S. but I have never been to New Jersey. I went through New Jersey once on a train but you can’t see very much. Sadly, I have never been out of the country either. I believe that is one of the things I love about her books is that she helps you see the country, the people and what it might be like to visit that place. A good mystery setting with rich descriptive words about place and time makes a good story for me. Our favorite author has set her stories in Mexico, Italy, Albania, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Thailand, Mainland China and various parts of the Africa Continent.

If you have lived or are living in one of the countries and would like to share with us some of the modern descriptions we would greatly appreciate it. The names of one or two of the countries that she has written about may have changed since the books were published but we would like to hear from you anyway. If you have some pictures we could email them to me with a description and I would be happy to post them. Email to: jolene.macfadden@mrspollifax.com

Have a great January and hope to hear from you soon!

I got bored with how the old site looked and decided to create this new one. I hope you like it and will participate in the blog discussions as well as add new content when you come across something interesting. Over the next 2 or 3 days I will be tweaking the site until I get all of the old information as well as adding some new content. Thanks for your patience and I look forward to hearing from all the Dorothy Gilman Fans!

If you want to participate and help me add more content please email me at jolene@mrspollifax.com and I will set you up as a contributor.
