Autorenporträt
Grace May North was born on February 1, 1876, in Utica, New York, to parents whose identities are not widely recorded in public sources. She became a newspaper journalist and later a prolific author of fiction aimed at children and young adults.

Most of her books were published under her real name, Grace May North, though some were later reissued under the pseudonym Carol Norton. Her narratives typically centered on themes of personal growth, social values, and youthful resilience, and she was known for combining engaging storytelling with subtle life lessons. In addition to her books, she contributed to periodicals and was respected for her work in both journalism and fiction. She lived and wrote during a period when literature for young readers was beginning to reflect more active and independent characters, a shift that her work helped advance.
