About the Author

---

Erin Rose Wage will tell you that children's books matter because a lifelong love of reading begins before you can read. She loves to make collages and miniatures, embroider, and perhaps most of all, she loves to read. Her favorite color is green, her favorite texture is corduroy, and her favorite vegetable is celery. She lives in Chicago in a hundred-year-old (not haunted) house with her handsome spouse, a wacky cat, and lots of foliage.
