About the Author

Justine Avery is an award-winning author who loves writing stories for all sorts of readers. She was born in America but grew up-and is still growing up-all over the world as a natural explorer with a curiosity for all things. She's jumped out of airplanes, off of very high bridges, and into shark-infested waters-to name a few adventures. And books are her favorite adventures of all.

"[Avery's] own energetic wonder of what the world can hold for you if you choose to seek it out shines through." --The Children's Book Review

"We're big fans of Justine Avery here at Bookbag Towers. She doesn't overtax the young readers she's creating for and she always puts out a positive message. ... As with all Avery's books for sharing, the text is ... accessible and rhythmic, optimistic, full of sunshine. I defy any parent child combo to come away without a smile on their faces and with a renewed desire to find as many books and stories to enjoy as the day can hold. ... It is always a pleasure to review a new book by Justine Avery." --The Bookbag
