As a child, I loved writing reports. For me, doing research has always been a kind of treasure hunt. My treasures are the facts that create pictures of past worlds and faraway places. I’ve put those facts into nearly 100 biographies, histories, and science books for young readers. I’ve also written two picture books – Cedric and the Dragon and The Christmas Star, and several interactive adventures that place you, the reader, inside the story. I hope that all my books lead you to imagine yourself in some intriguing place among fascinating people. Every book should take readers on new adventures in this big, beautiful world of ours. Happy travels!Author website: www.elizabethraum.net
