There is practically no online information about the author of our April book. All I've been able to come up with is a short blurb intended for kids and that the book is on its way to becoming a movie.
Ms. Blue Balliett is a teacher turned author who wrote Chasing Vermeer for her students, wanting something further in the line of From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. I'm curious about how the two compare; Mixed-Up Files is a classic. Chasing Vermeer is her first book but she's working on others.
I also want to know about her first name - is it is a pseudonym?
If you are interested in reviews, (I avoid them for fear of spoilers) here are a few:
