About the Author
GROWING UP, Laura Scandiffio loved to read and write stories, draw pictures, put on plays with friends, and explore the woods and water near her home and cottage.

Besides writing, Laura has worked as an editor of books for both children and adults. She is the author of The Martial Arts Book, also published by Annick Press. Laura lives in Toronto with her husband and two children.
