Katherine Paterson was the daughter of missionaries in China, where as a little kid she had access to everyone‘s houses, home life, how people live.
I’ve noticed that not a few writers I’ve liked had this early phase of childhood elsewhere. Whether as missionaries’ kids or ambassadors’ kids or whatever.
I’m sobbing with joy. This is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Oh, thank you!
