Adrian Fogelin, daughter of a fiction writer, grew up in a house littered with manuscript pages. It is no surprise that before long she began to write stories of her own. She is the author of six novels for middle grade readers and one Young Adult novel. She draws on experiences that include a stint as a zoo illustrator and years lived aboard a boat in the Florida Keys. Her books have received numerous prizes including two Florida Book Award gold medals, a Green Earth Award, ALA’s Voya Top Shelf, IRA’s Notable Books for a Global Society, as well as second place for the Premio Selezione Bancarellino, the most prestigious children’s book award in Italy. Her books have been included in numerous state lists including Florida’s Sunshine State Young Reader’s Award. Visit her website at: www.adrianfogelin.com
