One Summer in Between

About the Book

This is an Authors Guild/BIP title. Please use Authors Guild/BIP specs. Author's bio: See author bio info. Description as follows: This is essentially an old-fashioned novel, because it is nourishing. It leaves a good taste in the mouth. It is spiced with wit and laced with vitality—everybody in it is glad to be alive—yet its basic ingredients are those two fundamental to a good story: courage and love.

This is a book to read aloud, to lend to friends, to reread and, to treasure.

“One Summer In Between is a vital story, rich with detail…Harriet Brown is mischievous, thoughtful, wicked, pert, acidly charming, and made, certainly, of the stuff-that-endures.”—Gwendolyn Brooks, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet
