Jacqueline Briggs Martin

I grew up on a farm in Maine with three brothers, two sisters, my parents, and a great-great uncle. My grandparents lived downstairs. Even when I was a child I loved the sounds of words, the sounds of the names of the cows on our farm, such as Riverflat Blanche Wisconsin. We did not do much writing when I was in school and I did not imagine I would one day be writing books.

Author of Snowflake Bentley (Caldecott Award Winner, 1999) and the forthcoming The Lamp, The Ice, and the Boat Called Fish, and other titles.
