About the Author

Adventure, mystery, and wild creatures all play a part in Gloria Repp's many 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 elementary school and worked as an editor. 
 
She has written The Stranger's Secret with the vocabulary and simply-structured sentences appropriate for an elementary-level chapter book. Both young readers and reluctant older readers will enjoy Pibbin's adventures.

From the Back Cover

Pibbin's adventures are based on a real place: the abandoned cranberry bogs and ruins of Friendship town, in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. The forests, rivers, and bogs of the Pine Barrens provided Gloria Repp with inspiration for this series, and she has made many trips to explore them. Check out her website for enriching resource material, including photographs of the beautiful Barrens and frogs like Pibbin and Leeper.
