Overview: Frances Temple (1945-1995) grew up in Virginia, France, and Vietnam. About her third book she wrote, “The Ramsay Scallop is about our need for adventure and motion, for throwing in with strangers, trusting and listening. The story began to take form in northern Spain along pilgrim trails; was fed by histories, stories, letters, by the testimony of a fourteenth century shepherd, by the thoughts of today’s pilgrims. Concerns echo across years — clean water, good talk, risks welcomed, the search for a peaceful heart. Traveling in Elenor’s shoes, I found out how strongly the tradition of pilgrimage continues.”
Ms. Temple received many honors during her distinguished career. Her other critically acclaimed books for young people include: Taste of Salt: A Story of Modern Haiti, winner of the 1993 Jane Addams Children’s Book Award; Grab Hands and Run, cited by School Library journal as one of the Best Books of 1993; and Tonight, by Sea, another novel set in Haiti.
