Adventure, mystery, and wild creatures all play a part in Gloria Repp's books. She grew up in the Hawaiian Islands and the Pacific Northwest, and it was there she learned a love for wilderness that pervades her stories. During the years she spent raising her three children and writing books, she also taught creative writing and worked as an editor.
Gloria takes frequent trips to explore the New Jersey Pine Barrens and to collect website photographs and research material for her books. The lovely pine woods, tumbled ruins, and gleaming dark streams of the Barrens have provided both inspiration and setting for her children’s series, TALES OF FRIENDSHIP BOG.
