Contributor Bio(s): Phillips, Jennifer Jane: - Jennifer Phillips has been a writer for thirty years, starting out as a newspaper reporter in the Midwest. Her writing has given her a chance to try many fun and interesting things. She tackled crime stories and hung out in police labs long before shows like CSI were around. She's ridden in helicopters, watched surgeries and traveled to 10 countries so far, always on the quest to find a new story. For young readers, she has independently published three other biographies, previously wrote two paper crafting books for Capstone and has sold her work to children's publications as well. Jennifer lives in the Seattle area with her husband, two daughters, one cockatiel bird and a Betta fish rescued from a science class ecosystem experiment.Tougas, Shelley Marie: - Shelley Tougas worked in journalism and public relations before writing children's books. She is the author of Little Rock Girl 1957: How a Photograph Changed the Fight for Integration, which was among Booklist's 2011 Top Ten Editors' Choices. Shelley lives, writes, and reads in North Mankato, Minnesota. |
