Have you ever read a book and asked yourself questions like, "How did the author think of that?" "What inspired them to write this?" or "How did they become an author?"
We asked ourselves the same things, but now, we're asking the author. Listen to your favorite author talk about their story behind their story.
Gideon Sterer - If You Make A Call On A Banana Phone
Gideon Sterer is a New York Times bestselling children's book author with roots in the wilds of upstate New York, where his childhood was anything but ordinary. Growing up around his family’s wildlife discovery center, he spent his days exploring the woods and his nights sneaking around with the animals—sometimes even letting them out after hours. Those early adventures helped shape his imagination and brought him success as an author.
