Janet Sue Rhodes is a very old lady. She was born long before television or suitcases had wheels. Stories have piled up inside her imagination since she was old enough to say more than one word. She has been too busy raising four sons and living life to the fullest to write anything down. Now that she is almost eighty years old, her imagination is too crowded, and the Exactly Right Gift popped out. She found writing this was fun, so perhaps she will write some more.
