Katharine Kenah
Katharine Kenah grew up on a science observatory, surrounded by oceanographers and pets--even a bullfrog in the bathtub! She found friends in the pages of books. Kate worked on research ships, raised caterpillars, and patted a killer whale before starting to write for children. She hopes young readers find friends in her books. Kate lives with her family in Granville, Ohio.
