Author Notes:Robert Beatty is the author of the #1 New York Times best-selling Serafina series and the Willa series. His books are taught in over a thousand classrooms nationwide and have been translated into over 22 languages. Robert draws inspiration from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, where he lives with his wife, Jennifer, who created the interior drawings for this book. His adventure tales grew out of a desire to write stories about unusual and heroic young girls for his three daughters. He is a full-time author now, but in his past lives he was one of the early pioneers of cloud computing, the founder/CEO of Plex Systems, the cofounder of Beatty Robotics, and the chairman/CTO of Narrative magazine.
