  About The Gold Son:
  Noble's latest Young Adult novel continues her trademark style of blending historical folk mystique and heartwarming characters. Like her debut The Mermaid's Sister, which School Library Journal described as a "lovely, lyrical fantasy," THE GOLD SON will transport readers to an enchanting world.
  All sixteen-year-old Tommin wants is to make beautiful shoes and take care of his granny, but his insatiable need to steal threatens to destroy everything. Driven by a curse that demands more and more gold, he's sure to get caught eventually.
  About the Carrie Anne Noble:
  Lycoming County native Carrie Anne Noble is the author of the highly acclaimed novel The Mermaid's Sister, winner of the 2014 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award for Young Adult Fiction and the 2016 Realm Award for Speculative Novel of the Year. A former theatre student, restaurant hostess, certified nurse aide, and newspaper reporter, Carrie Anne now devotes her days to fabricating fanciful tales. She lives in the mountains of Pennsylvania with her tolerant husband, charming children, naughty cats, a not-so-bright dog, and some cute but dim-witted chickens. Her new novel The Gold-Son contains leprechauns.
