I was born in Philadelphia and currently live in Minneapolis. I write for both children and adults.
Kate DiCamilloWhen I get to a point in my book writing when I don't know what I'm going to do next, I'll come back look at underlined passages and see if the images I wrote still have a certain amount of resonance for me.

Kate DiCamilloFarewellโ is not the word that you would like to hear from your mother as you are being led to the dungeon by 2 oversize mice in black hoods. Words that you would like to hear are โTake me instead, I will go to the dungeon in my sons place.โ There is a great deal of comfort in those words.
