About the author

Jenny Koralek has written numerous books for children, but "was inspired to write NIGHT RIDE TO NANNA'S after my two small grandchildren came to stay with us, having traveled across hte city and hte river in the night to our house. I believe every child in the world is entitled to such an experience -- to travel from one safe, known, loved place to another."
