Karla Manternach grew up in small-town Iowa, a grubby kid in tube socks who once stopped an entire parade by running in front of a fire truck for candy. When she was older, Karla detasseld corn, read Star Trek novels, and studied languages that no one speaks anymore. Today, Karla lives with her family in small-town Wisconsin where she creates books for young readers and works as a freelance writer. She loves infomercials, bad apocalyptic movies, and Raspberry Zingers. You can follow her on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @mskarlam.

Without giving away any spoilers, I can say that there is an important part of the story that was inspired by my family's real-life experience. I'm also inspired by books about strong, smart, funny girls. Just being around kids gives me lots of ideas, too! I don't exactly follow them around with a notebook, but I love how thoughtful and silly and even philosophical they can be. I'm always trying to tap into that mindset when I write for children. Cheers!(less)
