Allan Wolf
Booklist says, "Allan Wolf makes reading and writing poetry cool." A two-time winner of the North Carolina Young Adult Book Award, as well as Bankstreet College’s prestigious Claudia Lewis Award for Poetry, Wolf’s picture books, poetry collections, and young adult novels showcase his love of research, history, science, and poetry. His latest picture book, No Buddy Like a Book, honors the special collaborative relationship between books and the readers who make them come to life. His latest YA novel, The Snow Fell Three Graves Deep: Voices from the Donner Party, is an example of how Wolf explores historical events from multiple points of view. And The Day the Universe Exploded My Head is an illustrated collection of poems for children celebrating the wonders of our Solar System.
