Overview

Gentle, imaginative Hetty feels at home with her kindly parents but struggles to find her place in a new school. She takes refuge in her secret forest hideaway. When an accident forces her to rely on others, will Hetty find what it takes to grow up and fit in? And is a mysterious stranger watching over her?

 

HETTY is the first in a three-part "coming of age" series about a gentle-imaginative girl with loving adoptive parents and a natural father. They, and some very special friends, help daydreamer Hetty (ages 7-15) grow up. It is superbly crafted by three-time MCA winning author-illustrator Martha Sears West. 

West has kindly narrated a HETTY audiobook which will also be launched the Summer of 2014. (An ebook will be available as well.)

About the Author

Award-winning author Martha Sears West grew up daydreaming and climbing trees in Bethesda, Maryland. Now the mother of three and grandmother of ten, West hopes everyone with children can see teenagers as the joy and inspiration she found hers to be. West, who received her B.A. degree in linguistics from the University of Maryland, claims to have merely provided the hand that jotted down the story. She feels Hetty composed this book herself.
