Truly Winnie

Written by Jennifer Richard Jacobson

Narrated by Laura Hamilton

It’s Winnie’s first time at camp and she loves it; but in a misguided effort to make new friends, she tells her tent mates that her mother, who died soon after she was born, is a famous artist. One lie leads to another until her friends from home overhear her, and her father shows up unexpectedly for a visit. The challenges of camp life and making new friends is convincingly explored in this second chapter book in the delightful Winnie series.

Jennifer Richard Jacobson

Jennifer Richard Jacobson grew up in a family of storytellers. “My brothers,” she says, “had the ability to make us laugh until our bellies hurt. I wasn’t as hilarious, but I learned how to take the mishaps in life (especially the embarrassments) and turn them into a dramatic story.” Jennifer is the author of the middle grade novels Paper Things and Small as an Elephant, and the Andy Shane picture book series, among others. She lives in Maine with her husband and Jack Russell terrier. Visit her at JenniferJacobson.com.
