About The Author
Marybeth Lorbiecki
Marybeth Lorbiecki is an award-winning author of more than twenty books. Her writing draws on experiences as a children’s book editor, mom, teacher, marketing copywriter, journalist, youth worker, international Rotarian ambassador, graduate student in literature, and post graduate student in philosophy. Her themes often center on people’s relationships—to each other and to the land. Many of her books bring history alive for younger readers, tackling difficult topics like racism, guns, war, and environmental challenges, yet they have a lighter side and a drama that allow younger readers to look at these issues with hope and courage. She lives in Hudson, Wisconsin, with her husband, David Mataya, a designer, artist, and musician, and their three children, Nadja, Mirjana, and Dmitri.
