O autorovi

Margaret Rogerson

Margaret píše fantasy pro dospívající mladé čtenáře. Když nepíše, věnuje se malování čtení, hraní her, vaření pudinků nebo se prochází po lese a hledá žáby a houby. Ráda sbírá šály a dívá se na víc dokumentárních filmů, než je – podle některých – ve společnosti přijatelné. Žije v Cincinnati ve státě Ohio a jednoho dne by se chtěla přestěhovat ke strašidelnému lesu.
