Marietta Apollonio grew up trying lots of different somethings, such as baseball, yo-yoing, skateboarding, and catching frogs--but she finally settled on art. She is the author-illustrator of Jack the Library Cat, a lover of wombats, and an amateur genealogist, having spent oodles of time discovering how far back her family lines go. When she's not writing and drawing, she is horseback riding, reading, and exploring the woods of central Massachusetts with her family.
