Erik Jon Slangerup grew up in a magical time before cell phones or the internet. It was called the eighties. He spent most of it roaming outdoors unsupervised, which inspired him to write tales of adventure, like the middle grade Far Flung Falls series. He has also written several picture books, including the award-winning Dirt Boy. Erik is the father of five, which has been his biggest adventure yet. He lives in Columbus, Ohio.
