Originally from Adelaide, G. Rosemary Ludlow has fashioned a series of books for elementary school-age readers that will introduce them to other cultures, augmented by a website with teacher suggestions for further studies stemming from each book about her protagonist, Susan. The first three adventure titles have historical orientations abetted by magical overtones. Her first volume, about life aboard a clipper ship, A Rare Gift (Comwave, 2016), concerns Vancouver Island in the 1860s and was shortlisted for a Chocolate Lily Award for 2016-2017. Book 4 considers some thought-provoking challenges for the future. Book 5 will be set in Australia. Her titles are available in print or as e-books.
