Mary Lennox

Mary Lennox grew up dreaming of places where magic and happy endings co-existed. She woke up long enough to leave graduate school, marry an irreverent lawyer and tour the world. Nothing could have prepared her for the medieval beauty of Europe's cathedrals, the grimness and glory of Russia, the exotic mysteries of India. The only way to top that experience was to turn carpenter and build her perfect house with her husband on a tranquil horse farm in Appalachia, home-school her kids from grades k-12, and gallop her horses on the wooded trails. Now back to dreaming full time, Mary spends her days creating worlds where magic and human endeavor vanquish evil and a happy ending is guaranteed.
