Description

Gwynneth Wallace’s childhood was shaped by two interesting influences. Her childhood home was a small town on the western Canadian prairie. Danish farmers had founded a town in which the minister and the church were shaping, and Danish was the first language for most. The close-knit community enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding prairie wheat fields in summer and winter sports in cold weather. The second influence was the fact that her father was the railway station agent, and Gwynneth grew up in the station house. In her adult life, she wrote letters for her children, who had scattered, and also to her grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, as she recalled all the fascinating things that went on in a railway station. She called the letters her “Dear Railway Children” and shared with her young readers the adventures of her early life. Late she gathered copies of the many letters and had them printed as a book for children fascinated with her story.
