Sarah Ridley Libri
Sarah Ridley scrive ed edita libri educativi per bambini e ragazzi. Un interesse di lunga data per la storia l'ha recentemente portata a scrivere sulla Prima Guerra Mondiale, ispirandosi alle lettere dei soldati che prestarono servizio nel conflitto. Il suo lavoro si addentra spesso in narrazioni personali e archivi familiari, come si vede nelle storie che esplorano la scoperta di materiali all'interno delle collezioni della sua famiglia. Un altro focus esplora la corrispondenza tra fratelli soldati e le loro sorelle, dando vita alle esperienze dei giovani durante la guerra.
