Description
British author Sally Gardner's is best known for her novels for teens, which often combine detailed historical fiction with imaginative fantasy. While these novels are set in a specific time and place in European history, they are also infused with magic, from fairy kingdoms to mind-reading gypsies. Historical settings are carefully and vividly depicted and her stories also include elements of mystery, suspense, and romance. Gardner's science fiction is equally vivid but bleaker in tone. Gardner also writes books for younger readers that layer fantasy over other real-life settings. Start with: The Red Necklace (Teens); Polly's Running Away Book (Older Kids)
