Sallie Wolf

Wherever she goes, Sallie Wolf takes her journal, fountain pen, ink, and watercolors. These are the tools she uses to record the world she sees. Her journals are a combination of an anthropologist’s field notes, a writer’s notebook, and an artist’s sketchbook. Her children’s books grow out of these journals. The Robin Makes A Laughing Sound: A Birder’s Journal is a collection of bird observations told in poetry, lists, questions, notes, and sketches. It was named an “Outstanding Science Trade Book” by the National Science Teachers Association and received a starred review from School Library Journal. Truck Stuck, was chosen by the Illinois Reading Council for their “Illinois Reads” program for 2014. Peter’s Trucks is a 2016 Illinois Reads choice. Sallie lives in Oak Park, IL.
