I'm the co-author with Victoria Bond of Zora and Me, winner of the Coretta Scott King/John Steptoe Award for New Talent, nominated for an Edgar, and winner of an AudioFile Earphones Award. With my husband Richard Simon and NYT bestselling illustrator Mark Siegel, I am the co-author of Oskar and the Eight Blessings, winner of a National Jewish Book Award for children's literature. My most recent book, Zora and Me: The Cursed Ground, is a Junior Library Guild selection with starred reviews from Horn Books, Kirkus, School Library Journal, and Shelf Awareness and has been nominated for a 2019 Edgar Award in the Juvenile category.
