 Julee Ann Granger was born and raised on a farm in rural central Iowa. Very much like the central character in her story, Julee Ann was given free reign, as a child, to explore the woods, ponds and creeks on her farm, as well as play with and befriend, a myriad of farm animals. She currently is an elementary school teacher in Kansas City, Kansas. |
 Judy Young is the author of several children's nonfiction, poetry and fiction books and has been in love with writing ever since she showed her grandmother a poem she wrote when she was ten. Judys most cherished honor as a writer was attending performances of her award-winning book, R is for Rhyme, A Poetry Alphabet, which was chosen by the Tanner Creative Dance program at the University of Utah for their 58th Annual Performance. In addition to writing, Judy visits schools, conducts writing workshops for students and is a frequent speaker at educational conferences. |
