EILEEN SPINELLI is the beloved author of nearly fifty children’s books. Among them are the middle-grade novels Summerhouse Time and The Dancing Pancake and picture books such as Cold Snap and Princess Pig. Eileen and her husband live in western Pennsylvania. When Eileen was ten, she used to drape herself in her grandmother’s old white organdy curtains and recite Emily Dickinson’s poem “I’m Nobody! Who Are You?” in front of the mirror (making sure no one was watching!).
