Author Background:

Dan Gemeinhart lives in a small town in Washington state with his wife and three daughters. He was lucky and grateful to be a teacher-librarian in an elementary school for fourteen years, where he shared awesome books with kids.

Dan was born in Frankfort, Germany, because his dad was in the Army. He moved around a lot, which was hard, but it gave him a lot of interesting experiences and probably made him a stronger person. His wife, Karen, is also a teacher, and they taught in Cairo, Egypt, where they rode camels and climbed the pyramids.

He wrote for TEN YEARS before finally getting his first book published, but says it was worth all the waiting and hard work. He encourages others to never give up!
