Small Mercies is a children's classic in the making ... it is a gently humorous delight. Satisfying, tender, funny and kind, this novel, as several other reviewers have noted, lingers after you turn the last page. - Featured in an interview with Bridget Crone in The Witness. * The Witness * This poignant, charming, perfect gem of a novel has the wonderfully timeless feel of a classic although it is set in modern-day, post-apartheid South Africa, in the City of Pietermaritzburg, the author's home. It's a small book with an uplifting message of love and community that resonates in our troubled times. * The Buffalo News *

Author Information

Bridget Krone lives and works in a village called Hilton just outside Pietermaritzburg, in the foothills of the Drakensberg mountains in South Africa. Her office looks onto a field where cows graze in the winter and cranes (both crowned and blue) visit in the summer. She has spent most of her working life writing short novels and English language text books for school children in South Africa. Her favorite stories are those that, just when you expect a lesson, sing a song instead.
