Stephanie Campisi is an Australian children's book author based in geologically rich eastern Tennessee, USA - an area home to many rocks and boulders! She has always been fascinated by the world underfoot, and has fossicked for opals at Coober Pedy, polished limestone in the waters of Malta, and geodes in the creeks of TN. When not exploring the forests and rivers around her home, Stephanie spends her days writing books, with titles to date including LUIS AND TABITHA, VERY LULU, FIVE SISTERS, QUACKS LIKE A DUCK AND AXOLOTLS: DAY TO ZZZ - and many more in the works! Stephanie holds an honors degree in Linguistics and Applied Linguistics and loves any opportunity to explore how languages (and people) work.
