Interests:

Author Eleanor Clark is interested in reaching out to girls with the gospel message. She understands that twenty-first century girls wear many faces, but share one thing in common - they're fun-loving and smart. They're also eager learners, interested in a host of things - from computer games, to athletics to their relationship with the Lord. In short, they're ready to have a great time!

As both a mother and a grandmother, Eleanor also knows that modern girls are faced with many obstacles and temptations. Most every time they turn on the television set or pick up a book to read, they are greeted with messages that conflict with their faith. Daily, their values are challenged. And twenty-first century girls, like all girls from the past, want to "fit in." They want to have friends and be popular. This isn't a new thing. In fact, it's been going on for ages.

The Eleanor Series has been specifically written with twenty-first century girls in mind. Modern girls can glean from the experiences of girls from American history who have faced similar challenges. With the help of the characters from the stories, today's girls will learn that they can maintain a strong faith, a great work ethic and a desire to "finish well."
