Katie Frawley is the author of Lighthouse and the Little Boat and Tabitha and Fritz Trade Places. Like Porcupine, she makes great potato salad. Unlike Porcupine, her favorite color is Goose Turd Green. (This is a real color. Katie didn’t make it up, though she wishes she had.) Katie teaches creative writing in sunny South Florida where she lives with her husband, five children, and a scruffy rescue pup named Gus.You can visit Katie Frawley at KatieFrawley.com
