Hi, I'm Laura Purdie Salas, and I write poetry and other books for kids and teens.
When I was a kid, I didn't really write, but I loved to read! I read all the time, even when my parents sent me outside to play. I was in college when I discovered I loved to write.
I've written for magazines and newspapers, but teaching 8th-grade English made me realize kids are my favorite people to write for.
