Kate Dicamillo - The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, Because of Winn Dixie, The Tiger Rising and so many more! She is a master author when it comes to writing about realistic fictional stories that go right to your heart. Her characters are complex, but when you finish you feel as if they are your best friends. These stories lend themselves to great conversations about people and life.
Margaret Peterson Haddix - author of The Missing and Shadow Children Series. Adventure, mystery, and suspense on every page. This author writes for the more advanced reader who is willing to investigate some of the challenging vocabulary that is woven into her stories.
Roald Dahl - great fun and always a special message to send to the reader. His interactive web page will get you hooked and coming back for more. My personal favorite is The Twitts!
