Gordon Fredrickson

A former English teacher, play director, farmer, and farm kid, Gordon W. Fredrickson has written 15 books to highlight the heritage of small farms with stories about a farm family in 1950. Like Laura Ingalls Wilder, he includes accurate details that serve to both teach and entertain. His books for children and adults include two Collector Series of illustrated books entitled the Farm Country Tales series and the If I Were a Farmer series; a book of poems entitled Farm Country Moments; and three books of nonfiction photo essays which feature photographs and stories from farm country.
