Summary

The remarkable memoir of the children's book writer Ursula Moray Williams, whose classic titles Gobbolinoand The Little Wooden Horseenthralled millions of readers, this book has been published to coincide with the centenary of William's birth. Drawing upon unpublished diaries and letters, this biography recounts the British author's own heartwarming story for the very first time--from the crumbling, fairy-tale mansion of her youth, through love, faith, crises, and sacrifices--and reveals the inspirations behind Williams' creativity. Detailing Williams' extraordinary life from childhood through her 90s, this book rivals the adventures of her brave, fictional heroes.
