Jill Paton Walsh was an English author renowned for her Booker Prize-nominated novel, Knowledge of Angels. She also co-authored the Peter Wimsey–Harriet Vane mystery series with Dorothy L. Sayers.

In Jill Paton Walsh's "The Green Book," Pattie and her family are among the last to escape a dying Earth, journeying to a new planet aboard an old spaceship. They aim to establish a colony on this promising world, but soon face a dire predicament: the planet lacks edible resources and may be infertile. As their supplies diminish, Pattie and her sister confront a critical decision—whether to take a risky action that could render their new home habitable.
