Acknowledgments

Thank you for reading Runaway Road! This series is a passion project of mine, inspired by a daydream I had one day when organizing my bookshelf.


When I was a kid, I loved reading. My favorite “chapter books” were The Boxcar Children. Over the years, I’ve been collecting them, hoping one day my own kids would love them as much as I did. One day I was in my office, staring at my bookshelf and lost in thought, when I spotted the spines for that series and wondered what happened to those kids as adults. From there, Londyn and her junkyard friends were born. I can’t wait to introduce you to the others as the series continues.


Special thanks to my editing and proofreading team: Elizabeth Nover, Lauren Clarke, Julie Deaton, Karen Lawson and Judy Zweifel. Thank you to Sarah Hansen for the beautiful cover. And thank you to my publicist, Danielle Sanchez.


Thank you to all the members of Perry Street for being the best superfans I could ask for. Thank you to the incredible bloggers who read and spread the word about my books. And thank you to my friends and my wonderful family for your unconditional love and support.
