About the Author:
From surviving chicken pox to saving soccer games, Grace Maccarone's books focus on and celebrate children's friendships: "Mostly, I write what I observe. I have written about friends I had as a child. I have written about my daughter and her friends. And I have written about my adult friends as children. I find inspiration from life experiences, books, and conversations."
Betsy Lewin always loved to draw and can't remember ever wanting to be anything but an artist. Her mother, a kindergarten teacher, read to Betsy and her brother every night. Illustrators Ernest H. Shepard and A. B. Frost were among her earliest heroes.
