Author: Gretchen Schneider and Anne Rose
Gretchen and Anne are a mother/daughter reading/writing team. Daughter Gretchen Schneider has been (secretly) writing a fantasy book, spurred by her childhood memories of She-Ra and Xena Warrior Princess, and inspired by Scribbler. When not at her job (and sometimes even then!), she can be found with book in hand. Mom is Anne Rose who has always been a nerd; proof is that her favorite childhood game was playing school, with her playing teacher of course. The other kids didn't share her enthusiasm.
