Christine Zuchora-Walske grew up--and eventually settled down--in
Minneapolis. But as a young adult, she spent some time gallivanting
elsewhere, including the University of Notre Dame, London, the
University of Denver, and a small town in the cornfields of
Illinois.
Along the way she discovered a love for reading, writing, and
inquiry--and a desire to make a career of those activities. For
almost twenty years now, Christine has been writing and editing
books and magazine articles for children and their parents. She
began as an editor with the Cricket family of children's magazines.
She ventured to the Lerner Group next, and then Meadowbrook Press.
After having two children, she became a freelance editor and
writer.
Christine's author credits are many and varied. They include crafts
and puzzles; a monthly column in which she impersonated a praying
mantis; natural science titles for beginning readers; books
exploring countries around the world; a debate on the pros and cons
of Internet censorship; and books on pregnancy and parenting.
Christine has also edited hundreds of articles and books in many
genres and for all ages.
Christine is especially fond of science and history. But she loves
all kinds of knowledge and literature. She never tires of learning
new things, and she gets a kick out of trading knowledge with
others.
"Readers with a passion for robots and their varied uses will be drawn to these titles. The series may even spark a child's desire to build and program their own robot; introducing young and emerging readers to this field of science and engineering."―Library Media Connection-- (3/1/2015 12:00:00 AM)
