Lana Wayne Koehler was a music teacher in Ohio before retiring and writing children's books. Now an active member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), she helps new writers by speaking at Kent State University and local writer's groups. Joining with Gloria G. Adams to write Ah-Choo!, she has formed a lifelong friendship and partnership. Lana loves cooking exotic foods and traveling with her husband Dano, who supports her beyond measure. Gloria G. Adams wanted to be an archaeologist, an ice skater, a writer, or a princess. Instead, she worked as a children's librarian and storyteller. Now, she spends most of her time writing books for children. She loves reading, telling stories with puppets, walking on the beach, and eating chocolate.
