The Owl's Tree
Gail Karwoski, Author   As a child, Gail loved reading, writing, and teaching
paper doll students.  As an adult, dry history books and a lack of good historical fiction
for real students frustrated her.  Gail began writing stories to bring history to life.  
Combining thorough research and innovative approaches to writing history and
historical fiction, she appeals to a wide range of students including reluctant readers.
Gail’s lively presentations encourage reading, writing, and research.  Her slides show
primary research sources, photographs, and the development of her manuscripts.  
She offers excellent teacher workshops.
Her books: historical fiction The Tree That Owns Itself ($8.95), Sea Man ($14.95 &
$8.95), Surviving Jamestown ($14.95 and $8.95), and Quake ($14.95), history, Miracle
($17.95), and science: Waterbeds ($15.95).
