While You're at School - Paperback

Weisberg, Edmund M.: - Edmund Weisberg obtained master of science and master of bioethics degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. He has several years of experience in medical writing and editing, including roles as managing editor and contributing author for three dermatology textbooks, with a fourth on the way. His career has included work with Greenpeace, the International Clinical Epidemiology Network, the American Association for Cancer Research, and the University of Pennsylvania. He has been published online in Voices in Bioethics and Impakter Magazine. Edmund's interest in reading, and telling the occasional tale, may very well spring from his mother's early inspired efforts to encourage him to read... to his younger sister Jodi and her friends on the front porch. Cookies and lemonade may have been a stronger incentive for the audience, but Edmund was hooked on reading. This is his first book for children.Barr, Loel: - Loel Barr, a Kansas native, received her MFA from Wichita State University, traveled extensively, and spent many years in the Washington, DC area establishing a successful career as a freelance illustrator. She moved to the Hudson Valley in 2004, where she works on fine art pieces as well as illustration. She's the delighted grandma of Charlie, Silas, and Maria Clementine, all of whom highly recommend this book.
