About the author

Kevin Kurtz has loved books and nature since he was a kid growing up in upstate New York. As an adult, he has worked at a marine biology research center, an aquarium and a children's science museum. He has also sailed on scientific research ships, including with the Chicxulub Impact Crater expedition as scientists drilled into the crater from the asteroid impact that wiped out most of the dinosaurs.

His first children's book, 'A Day in the Salt Marsh,' was published in 2007. He continues to write books and visit schools to introduce children to the wonders of reading, writing, science and nature.
