FOR MY
GONDOLA GIRL…
What started as a mom jotting down some memories while the kids napped, turned into a special keepsake for one little gondola girl.
After I couldn’t find a local children’s book I liked, I was inspired to write my own. This little mountain town has become our home away from home, and I hope this book becomes a keepsake for other families as well, reminding them of a beloved summer vacation, ski trip, or local connection. Those familiar with the area may recognize Mt. Mansfield’s distinct Chin and Nose, Stowe’s red gondolas (even the small ones sold in the local shops), and one special bear from the Vermont Teddy Bear Factory.
If you’re here, thank you for you interest in our little labor of love. I hope to see you around town soon!
With love,
Kelsey
