Some other books she wrote is Fantastic beast and where to find them, and the tales of beedle the bard. an insteresting fact is that fantastic beast and where to find them, is one of the text books in the first harry potter book, Harry Potter and the sorcers stone. And The tales of beedle the bard is a book in the finle 7th book, Harry Potter and the dethly hollows. one of her web sites that she made is called https://www.pottermore.com whare you can learn more about the caracters in the Harry Potter books and play games related to Harry potter.

My author is Wendy Toliver she is the author of Once Upon a Time Reds untold Tale. She also is an author to many other books such as Once Upon a Time Regina's Rising, Lifted, and so much more. Something interesting I found about my author was that when she is not creating a book what she does for fun is snowboards, boating, hiking, and traveling.  Wendy was born in Huston, Texas. Some of Wendy's books are from the ABC TV show Once upon a Time. Some jobs my author has had in the past is Fun-shine Bear, Wendy's. Safeway, delivered newspapers, and sang at an national anthem at college basketball games.  Wendy's mom is a retired elementary school and teacher and her dad use to work at NASA. Once Wendy graduated B.A in Speech Communication/ Broadcast she married her college sweet heart. Once they got married they move to Utah. He was in a family business while Wendy was a advertising agent and as Wendy said it " she dipped she toes into writing." Something Wendy said that inspired to write she stories was the show Once upon a Time she thought by adding more to the story would make it more interesting. If you are interested into magic/ fantasy Wendy has some great books in store for you. If you would like to know more about Wendy Toliver go to her website  www.wendytoliver.com/books.html I hope you will read her books and enjoy!

One of the things i thought was very shocking about my author was that when i was reading about her i found out that her family is from Itally. I do wounder if she was born there or not?I was looking threw the back of my book only to notice a lot of printed pictures of her child hood so I think this could have been based off a real story.

My author is Gordon Korman  he wrote the Swindle series. One of the thing's I found interesting was that most of Gordon's book's were translated into 32 languages and he has also has sold 28 million copies of his book's. And his first ever book was This Can't be  Happening  in McDonald Hall. And I also learned that Gordon Korman like's writing mystery stories.

I think Gordon Korman wrote the Swindle series because it has a lot of coming together and making a conclusion. Plus in this series you have to work as a team and get the job done when needed. And of course it has a lot solving and finding clues because its' a mystery series. And I think he'll keep on writing stories about mystery because kids our enjoying them in the Swindle series and other book's he published

I would like to share with you the author J.K Rowling;  she  has wrote the Harry Potter series, It is my all time favorite series! She hasn't  written any more books other than Harry Potter but she is a very very good author. She puts a lot of
detail into her books. Harry Potter   and the Sorcerer's Stone was published in 1995, it was also the fifth-best-selling single-volume book of all time and approximately 120 million sales. I am on the fifth book right now and after reading the first one it has made me want to read more! All of her books are about Harry Potter and his adventures with his best friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I think J.K Rowling decided to write this series because she wanted to developed a different world. One thing that is interesting to me is that when she wrote the 8th book she didn't make it into a real book and only made it into script form and it was very confusing that way. I was surprised to find a website called https://www.pottermore.com/ where you can learn more about the characters in Harry Potter and Play games related to it. I definately think that you should read the series of Harry Potter if you are in to Fantasy and Adventure

Gordon Korman
I was surprised to learn that Gordon wrote his first book "This Can't be Happening at MacDonald Hall" in the 7th grade. I thought it was interesting that the track and field coach subbed for the writing teacher. He let them write about whatever they wanted. So he sent his story to scholastic to try to get it published. His book got published when he was a freshmen in high school.

I think Gordon Korman chose to write Jingle because he hadn't written a Swindle Series book in awhile. I also think he chose to write it because it was his first ever holiday book he ever wrote. I think another reason he wrote another Swindle Series book because a lot of people read The Swindle Series. Then  people started complaining about Gordon not making any new Swindle Mystery books. Then I just think he wrote Jingle just because he likes writing.

Some thing I was excited to learn about my author was he was born in Canada. Also that he began writing in seventh grade.  His first published book was This Can't be Happening in Mcdonald Hall. He also has been reading for three fourths of his life. He has sold 28  million copies of his book in several different languages.
I think Gordan Korman wrote the Swindle Series because he wanted a good mystery series for kids to read. I think he also so wrote it because it is a interesting topic about solving mysteries blamed on the team. I think he also  choose to write the Swindle Series because he was a kid to and they should be able to stand for themselves.

I would like to share with you the author Margaret Peterson; She has wrote the series Haddix. This series made me want to read even more! Margaret made these books very mysterious and fun. Every time I read from these books I never want to stop because every part I stop at is an excited moment! Most of her books are about shadow children that aren't supposed to be alive! Her first Haddix book was Among the Hidden.
I think Margaret Peterson decided to write these series because a lot of people like mysterious books that make you want to scream. They make me jump up and down. I think that she really likes mysteries because a lot of people really like those exciting books so they give her attention. I highly suggest these books. I hope you enjoy you reading!

I would like to share one of my favorite authors James Dashner. He has wrote a lot of books and a lot of series. You might know him by the Maze Runner series but I know him as the Mortality Doctrine series. The books I've known that he has wrote are The Maze Runner, The Scorch Trials, The Death Cure, The Kill Order, and The Fever Code. Since last year I started the Mortality Doctrine series that starts with The Eye of Minds, The Rule of Thoughts, and the one that I'm reading right now is The Game of Lives. He had New York's best selling books, The Maze Runner series. He makes really great books with a lot of action and like cool stuff. If you like that then look up James Dashner. The Maze Runner series is probably one of his best books and series ever. But I like the Mortality Doctrine Series and my favorite book in that series is either The Eye of Minds or The Game of Lives. James Dashner has really good books so if you are interested in James Dashner tyr him out and one of is books.

The author I would like to share with you is Ally Condie; she wrote the Internationally best-selling trilogy Matched.  I was surprised to see  how many more books this author has written.  I had never heard of some of her other works that were listed on her website: Summer Lost or Enthralled although Atlantia is definitely a book I have been wanting to read.  Many of the books look really amazing! I think this was my biggest surprise I simply wasn't aware she had so many other books.  I am going to add them to my Books to Read list.

Another surprise I noticed as I was reading from her official website: http://allycondie.com/ is she tends to write books that include some sort of romance mixed with some dystopian fantasy similar to The Hunger Games or Divergent series.  I think many of the girls would enjoy reading her books.  Although, I do think there are books that boys would enjoy as well such as her book Freshman for President.

Probably the biggest surprise I found while learning about this author is that she has a writing camp designed just for teens!!!  The kids work alongside real authors and it takes place in Utah.  I thought this was pretty neat.

One reason I think Ally Condie may have chosen to write the trilogy Matched is because the dystopian novel seems to be pretty popular right now. However, I did notice that the main character, Cassia, loves to run, and on Condie's website, she talks about her love for running. So, I think she must have based her main character's love of running off of herself. I always wondered if author's base any of their character's or stories around their own life.

I am glad I read about her because now I want to see if she has based any other characters or settings off of her own life.  I hope you'll check out her books too!  Happy Reading!!!
