Heather L. Montgomery

Heather L. Montgomery writes for kids who are wild about animals. Her 17 nonfiction books include SOMETHING ROTTEN: A FRESH LOOK AT ROADKILL, WHAT’S IN YOUR POCKET? COLLECTING NATURE’S TREASURES, and BUGS DON'T HUG: SIX-LEGGED PARENTS AND THEIR KIDS.

Heather masterfully employs yuck appeal to engage young minds. She delights in using snail poop, petrified animal parts, and tree guts to inspire reluctant readers and encourage scientific thinking. Heather has a B.S. in Biology and a M.S. in Environmental Education. Learn more about her at www.HeatherLMontgomery.com.
