edit data

Kat Chew is a writer and outdoor enthusiast. In 2014 she was awarded the Best Environmental Reporting Piece of the Year from the Wisconsin Newspaper Association.

"The Thing King" is her debut children's book.

In her own words, "I love tea, travel, and sunshine. When I'm not stumbling upon some new (and probably awkward) situation, I'm likely writing about an old one.
