🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Jan Burke
To pay tribute to her childhood, which she still enjoys, as she admits, Jan Burke and her husband possess a collection of children’s books, like Freddy the Pig. During her childhood in Houston, Texas, where she was born, her parents sowed the seeds of affinity for books by stimulating her to read and visit the local library. It was her mother who started a school library without a budget, but truly believed it should exist. Scientific materials were also treated in the family as an appropriate source of information to shape the academic and literary taste of the young girl, nine years of age by that time, and already settled in Southern California.
