Samantha Berger grew up reading lots of books that had evil, wicked, and B-A-D bad Stepmothers in them. But her *own* Stepmother is one of the coolest people on the planet! She thought it was high time that Steps had a book celebrating THEM. Sam is the author of 90 books for young readers, a three-time Emmy nominated TV writer, and lives in Santa Monica with her dog Polly Pocket.
