Olive Spins a Tale (and It's a Doozy!)
What's This Book About
When it comes to long-distance friendships, a delayed response or no response at all can lead to plenty of hurt feelings. Cross-country pen pals Molly and Olive find that out the hard way when an unanswered gift causes Olive to go a little crazy, spinning tales of trips to Paris and dinners with royalty in an effort to make Molly jealous. Readers can follow the wild ride themselves by reading the girls’ correspondence and listening to their alternating first- person points-of-view.

The Creatives Behind the Book
Hello! I write chapter books, middle grade books, and YA books (under the name M.C. Atwood), and teach creative writing and publishing at Rowan University. I LOVE doing all of that. And when I’m not writing or teaching, I’m going to haunted houses, eating (dairy free!) ice cream, and/or diving into magical worlds feet-first. I’m also hanging out with my two cats–and by hanging out, I mean doing whatever they say. What? They talk to me! That’s normal. . . right?
Lucy Fleming lives and works in a small town in England with an animator and a little black cat. She has been an avid doodler and bookworm since early childhood, drawing everyday, bringing characters and stories to life. When not at her desk, Lucy loves to be outdoors in the sunshine with a hot cup of tea–doodling, of course. She is the illustrator of Hello, Fall!, written by Deborah Diesen.
