AUTHOR'S BIO:

With plots involving twins, cheerleaders, ghosts, psychics and clones, Linda Joy Singleton has published over 25 midgrade and YA books.  Her REGENERATION series from Berkley Books was chosen by the ALA as a 2001 Quick Pick Choice for reluctant young adult readers.

Her midgrade series, MY SISTER THE GHOST, is about a shy girl who meets her wild ghostly twin sister.  Her YA series, REGENERATION, dealt with the ultimate identity crisis for teens: discovering they are clones. Her two new series are STRANGE ENCOUNTERS and THE SEER.

Linda keeps in touch with young readers through her a reading club, speaking at schools/libraries, corresponding with fans and reading terrific juvenile books by favorite juvenile authors. 

When Linda is asked why she’d rather write for kids than adults, she says, “I love seeing the world through the heart of a child, where magic is real and every day begins a new adventure.  I hope to inspire them to reach for their dreams.  Writing for kids is a gift, a responsibility, and an honor.”
