Famous Hoosier Report

comment:

Hi! I am a fourth grader and have chosen you as my famous Hoosier for my Famous Hoosier Project for school. I love reading your books, especially the Boys Vs. Girls series. I was excited to find out that you were born in Indiana! After you were born, how long did you live in Indiana? Thank you for taking the time to read this!

I was born in Anderson, Indiana–then we lived in Muncie for awhile–then back to Anderson.  We moved to Illinois when I was starting the seventh grade.  I’m glad you’re enjoying the Boys Vs Girls books.  Those all take place in my husband’s home town, Buckhannon, West Virginia, though I call it Buckman in my books.
