Helpful Score: 1

In 1979 her writing exploded onto a barely tapped Christian fiction market. Her simple stories, based on the lives of early prairie settlers, opened the door for fiction to an audience who had not yet discovered the joys and the "take-away value" of a well-told story. With sales of her novels now exceeding eleven million copies, she has surpassed the label of "bestselling" and has earned the title of "best loved."
In Janette Oke: A Heart For the Prairie, readers will discover that Janette fits none of the celebrity stereotypes. The daughter of a Canadian prairie farmer, the wife of a warmhearted pastor and educator, the mother of four grown children, and a grandmother who delights in her grandchildren-she is an ordinary woman with an extraordinary talent.
Any reader of Janette Oke will be delighted with this "insider's view" of her life by her daughter, Laurel Oke Logan.
