by Dee Day
Dee Day is known for Getting to Know Spain, a book praised for communicating both the warmth and dignity of Spanish life to children. Reference sources also list other books under the same name, including Ivor The Imp & The Lost Treasure of Maddox.
A brief publisher-style note says Dee Day studied Spanish intensively and then traveled in Spain while preparing Getting to Know Spain. That mix of research and direct experience helps explain the book’s vivid, approachable feel.
Very little biographical information appears to be publicly available, so details such as birthplace, career history, or a fuller personal background are not easy to confirm from reliable sources.
