Tammi Salzano grew up in upstate New York and has been involved in children's books for nearly 30 years. She has written more than 65 books for young readers and has edited countless more. When she's not busy searching for a word that rhymes with "together," she can be found baking cookies and taking too many pictures of her cats. Several years ago, she decided to escape the cold weather and now lives with her family in sunny (and warm) Florida.
