About the Author

Curtis Manley

Curtis Manley grew up in western Pennsylvania and then lived in Ohio, Arizona, California, Arizona (again!) , and North Carolina before moving to the Seattle area of Washington state. He knows that books are doors to special places that you can't always get to on your own, whether across the country, on the other side of the world, far back in time, or way out in space.His first picture book, THE SUMMER NICK TAUGHT HIS CATS TO READ, is a light-hearted look at what goes wrong when a young boy tries to share his love of books with his two cats, Verne and Stevenson. In the end, they learn that finding just the right book can make all the difference.Combining real facts into fictional stories that entertain is Curtis' favorite way of making the Universe a little more understandable. His interests include birds, bugs, and mammals; trees; tornadoes and volcanoes; planets, moons and asteroids; haiku; and software--and if he's lucky you will see books that include one or more of those topics in the future...
