Local author Mrs. Janice George-Harris is featured as she launched her book, ‘Little Hill Stories’ on Saturday May 6, on Virgin Gorda. The book highlights the boyhood adventures of the author’s father, Mr. Roosevelt George, and his siblings and documents the stories of the people from Little Hill.

Acting Premier, and Representative for the 9th Electoral District, Honourable Vincent Wheatley lauded Mrs. George-Harris’ accomplishment as a significant contribution to preserving the history and cultural heritage of the Virgin Islands.

The launch was attended by several of Mrs. George-Harris’ relatives, friends, and members of the small, closely-knitted Little Hill community, many of whom were featured in the book.
