Author of over thirty traditionally-published books for young readers, Margo Sorenson was born in Washington, DC, and spent the first seven years of her life in Spain and Italy, devouring books and Italian food. She finished her school years in California, graduating from the University of California at Los Angeles. After teaching high school and middle school and raising a family of two daughters, Margo is now a full-time writer, writing primarily for young people of all ages, toddlers through high schoolers. Margo enjoys writing for young readers since she believes they are ready for new ideas and experiences, and they really have fun "living" the lives of the characters in books. A National Milken Educator Award recipient, Margo always has a great time meeting with her readers in person or virtually in school and library settings from Minnesota to California and Hawaii, as well as internationally. Margo is represented by Dan Cramer of the Flannery Literary Agency Besides winning recognition and awards for her books from various groups, including the American Library Association, Margo was invited to donate and archive her working papers with the internationally-known children's literature collection, the Kerlan Collection, at the University of Minnesota. After having lived in Hawaii, California, and Minnesota, Margo and her husband now live full-time in California. When she isn't writing, she enjoys visiting her grandchildren, playing golf, reading, watching sports, traveling, and hearing from her readers. Just published in 2020 are her newest picture books, LITTLE CALABASH (Island Heritage) and CALVIN'S LAST WORD (Tilbury House), which was chosen by the New York Times in November, 2020, as a featured picture book about books. Margo's most recent book, a YA/Adult novel titled SECRETS IN TRANSLATION, was published in 2018 by Fitzroy Books, and takes place in Italy, receiving wonderful reviews from such entities such as the National Italian American Foundation magazine, The Ambassador.
