Rebecca O'Connell
Rebecca O'Connell grew up in Indiana, Pennsylvania and went to college at Penn State University, where she majored in psychology. She went to library school at the University of Pittsburgh and went to work at Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh. "I’ve worked there for fourteen years!"
"I love being a librarian as much as I love writing for children and teens. Lots of other librarians must feel the same way."
Her well-respected publications are not only fun to read but also promote self-esteem and self-reliance. To find out more about Rebecca O'Connell and her books, visit her website: www.rebeccaoconnell.com
