  And thank you to my family and friends, many of whom unknowingly lent their names to characters in the book. Thank you to my sister, Jesika, and my parents, Teri and Duane, who never faltered in their support as I pursued this writing thing.

  REBECCA PETRUCK is a Minnesota girl, though she has also lived in Louisiana, Mississippi, New York, England, Connecticut, and, currently, North Carolina. A former member of 4-H, she was also a Girl Scout and a cheerleader, and competed in MATHCOUNTS. She reads National Geographic cover to cover. She may have pulled a few pranks in her life, though no one can prove she wrapped that entire car in cellophane. You may visit her online at rebeccapetruck.com.
