Her stories were typical of Victorian Christian stories for kids that had religious or moral themes. For kids, she wrote cience books, and she also wrote a few historical stories and a well-known biography. Giberne was born in Belgaum, Karnataka, India. Her parents were Captain Charles Giberne (16 June 1808 - 21 December 1902) of the Bengal Native Infantry and Lydia Mary Wilson (c. 1816 - 20 May 1890).
