About the author
Dave Webb
50 books1 followerDave Webb is an author and educator from Pennsylvania. His tenth book, Mr. Nomad: Tales of a Traveling Teacher chronicles his nearly thirty-year career as an elementary school teacher in three states.
Webb started his writing career as a newspaper reporter. Soon he felt a calling to become a teacher. He has taught fourth and fifth grade for more than twenty years.
After becoming a teacher, Webb had an itch to do more writing. That's when he decided to write a humorous children's book loosely based on true events. Slinky Inkermann and the Crazy Contest was published in 1996, followed by two sequels.
In 2007 Webb published a short novel for young adults entitled Amber. The book tells the story of a young girl whose unstable home life causes her to hear disturbing voices. The heart-wrenching story is fast-paced and addresses the problem of domestic abuse and neglect from a child's point of view.
In 2012 Webb published Barkley Rules, which is a humorous chapter book about a sixth-grader who tries to rid his middle school of bullying.
Two more books followed in 2013. A sequel to Amber, entitled Amber Lee, was published in March. Then came a new edition of the second Slinky Inkermann book, Superfreaky Summer.
In 2015 Webb released The Challenge for ages 7-10 and The House on Eerie Street for ages 9-12.
