April 4, 2024 – London, United Kingdom: Reader’s House, a prestigious literary magazine renowned for featuring bestselling, award-winning, and exceptional authors, proudly presents Vickie L. Gardner on the cover of its 43rd issue. Not only has Gardner graced the cover, but she has also been honored with the Editor’s Choice Award for Literary Excellence, a testament to her remarkable contributions to the world of children’s literature.
Gardner’s journey into the literary world is nothing short of inspiring. Hailing from Littleton, Colorado, her passion for storytelling blossomed from her childhood fascination with mystery adventures like Nancy Drew. Drawing from her rich imagination cultivated in her family’s basement, Gardner crafted tales that captivated readers of all ages. Her commitment to storytelling was further refined through her studies at the Institute of Children’s Literature and her active participation in esteemed writers’ circles.
Throughout her illustrious career, Gardner has garnered accolades such as an Honourable Mention from the Writers’ Journal and a second-place finish in a Sportsman’s News contest. In addition, she was also awarded the Hindi’s Libraries’ 2022 Females of Fiction Silver Award in the Chapter Book category for her middle-grade novel, “The Ghost of Morgan Gulch.” However, it is her ability to infuse her personal experiences and family escapades into heartwarming narratives that truly sets her apart.
In her exclusive interview with Reader’s House, Gardner delves into the inspirations behind her beloved characters and shares insights into her upcoming bilingual editions, which aim to bridge cultural gaps and empower young Spanish-speaking readers. Her dedication to instilling values of courage, friendship, and family shines through in her acclaimed series, “The Adventures of Darby,” promising not only thrills but also invaluable life lessons for young readers.
Gardner’s impact extends far beyond the pages of her books. Through her donations to elementary schools and support for literacy organizations like Literacy Connects and Hindi’s Libraries, she ensures that her stories reach and inspire children across the globe.
As Gardner continues to captivate audiences with her imaginative storytelling, readers can eagerly anticipate the expansion of “The Adventures of Darby” series, along with new projects exploring diverse genres such as romance and westerns.
