Today we meet Fiona Bayrock, our category organizer for Non-Fiction Picture Books:
Adding international flavoUr to the organizer mix, I'm a Canadian
children's author specializing in "way cool" science aimed at the
10-and-under crowd. Publishing-wise, I've got books with Scholastic,
Capstone, and Charlesbridge as well as 60+ articles, stories, and
poems in magazines such as Highlights for Children, KNOW, and Odyssey.
In my spare time (ha!) you can find me schlepping teens to university, stage managing a community theatre production, or--surprise!--reading.
I blog about writing and books at Books and 'Rocks, where I've been known to participate in Poetry Friday and Nonfiction Monday on occasion. I also partner-blog about book promotion at Bubble Stampede! My online home base is at fionabayrock.com
I served on the 2007 Cybils NFPB panel, and am very excited to be asked back this year as the Nonfiction Picture Book organizer.
