À propos de l?auteur
Kate Douglas Wiggin was an American educator, author, and composer who lived from September 28, 1856, until August 24, 1923. She also created collections of children's songs in addition to writing children's books, most famously the classic Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. In San Francisco, she established the city's first free kindergarten in 1878. She also started a kindergarten teacher training program in the 1880s with her sister. In an era when kids were often seen as cheap labor, Kate Wiggin dedicated her whole life to the welfare of kids. Wiggin traveled to California to research kindergarten instruction. She started teaching in San Francisco with the help of her sister Nora, and the two were crucial in establishing more than 60 kindergartens for the underprivileged in Oakland and San Francisco. She relocated from California to New York, and because she was out of kindergarten assignments, she focused on literature. She had storytelling ability in addition to being a good singer, guitarist, and composer of settings for her poems. She was a skilled orator as well.

Penelope's Postscripts (Paperback)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Penelope's postscripts presents a lively account of travel as a path toward personal growth and deeper understanding of the world. The narrative follows an enthusiastic traveler accompanied by close companions while exploring scenic landscapes across Europe. Surrounded by lakes, mountains, and charming old towns, the central figure seeks more than postcard beauty; the journey becomes a search for meaning, learning, and connection to local culture. Through humorous observations and spontaneous decisions, the traveler contrasts superficial sightseeing with the desire for experiences that enrich the mind and spirit. The story highlights moments of curiosity, playful banter, and thoughtful reflection as new places reshape expectations and inspire unexpected insights. Encounters with history, art, and education reveal that travel offers lessons that extend beyond geography. Each destination introduces a shift in perspective, pushing the traveler to embrace both the joys and uncertainties of exploration. Ultimately, the book celebrates the transformative power of travel, showing how stepping into unfamiliar places leads to self-discovery, renewed purpose, and a deeper appreciation of the world.
