As a kid, when Julie Danneberg daydreamed or played at being grown-up, she never imagined herself as a writer. Instead she dreamed of being a famous girl reporter, a secret agent, and a teacher.
As an adult, she is a former middle-school teacher and the author of the bestselling Jitters series, including
First Day Jitters and
Last Day Blues. She lives in Colorado.
Judy Love is a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design and has illustrated numerous children's books, including
First Day Jitters and
Last Day Blues by Julie Danneberg. She lives near Charlotte, North Carolina, with her family.
