Now Cam has a pup of her own, who is very mischievous, and she still loves writing about animals.Cam lives in New York City with her two children, her husband, and Laila the dog.
AllisonSteinfeld grew up in Connecticut where she spent hours getting lost in her library books. She currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia, with her two very fluffy cats. When not providing essential head scratches and belly rubs, she finds time to illustrate books like the Wait! What series and the Kid Legends series.
