Karla Manternach grew up in small-town Iowa, a grubby kid in tube socks who once stopped an entire parade by running in front of a fire truck for candy. When she was older, Karla detasseld corn, read Star Trek novels, and studied languages that no one speaks anymore. Today, Karla lives with her family in small-town Wisconsin where she creates books for young readers and works as a freelance writer. She loves infomercials, bad apocalyptic movies, and Raspberry Zingers. You can follow her on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @mskarlam.
