Wendy Pfeffer comes by writing naturally. Her grandfather was a dermatologist and an author. Her father was a math professor who also lectured on the origin of words and phrases. Her love of words, science, nature, and young children led Wendy to write children's science books. Several have won the "Best Science Book of the Year" award.

A few of her titles are From Tadpole to Frog, What's
It Like To Be A Fish, A Log's Life, Dolphin Talk, The Shortest Day:
Celebrating the Winter Solstice, and A New Beginning: Celebrating the
Spring Equinox.

Wendy was delighted teaching elementary school children, but now writes
full time. She visits schools, teaches children and adults to write,
conducts college literature classes, and thoroughly enjoys researching
science topics.
She is a member of the Bucks County Authors of
Books for Children, Society of Children's Book Writers and
Illustrators, The Authors Guild, and Savvy Marketers.

Reviews:
"Your level of enthusiasm and energy amazed me. As the day wore on and the grade level got progressively higher, your patience and encouragement remained steadfast. That spirit proved most successful. Many children were heard to say that they want to be authors when they grow up and many teachers told me that you provided the 'best author day yet'."

you listened and spoke to the children. The presentation was age
appropriate and interesting."

"It
was such a delight to have you visit our school! Your presentation was
timely, well thought out and extremely well received. It was a pleasure
to see how well you held everyone's attention throughout your
presentation, not always easy to do."
