Contributor Bio(s): Wonders, Junia: - There are two things in this world that Junia Wonders loves doing the most: writing and reading children's stories. When she's not doing either of these, you might catch her whispering to dragonflies, chasing rolling pumpkins, traveling the world with a giant wheel of cheese, or simply having a cup of tea and cake with a caterpillar, a clever little rat, a camel, a lonely pony, a couple of riotous retired neighbors, and some school kids who, like her, believe that bullying is not cool at all. She sincerely hopes you enjoy reading her books as much as she enjoys writing them. To find out about her books and random musings, visit her at www.juniawonders.com.
