L'evoluzione di Calpurnia

The historical setting adds so much flavor and context, but I wonder what drew Jacqueline Kelly to that specific time and place for Calpurnia's story.

Calpurnia's curiosity about nature and science was infectious, making me want to learn more about the natural world too. Did the book motivate others to pursue their interests in science?

The family dynamics felt authentic and warm, but I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or observations when crafting these relationships.
