Carolyn Peterson was born and raised in New Jersey. She enjoyed writing as a child, and as she was growing up, she happily cared for many young children. Carolyn earned her degree in speech pathology, married her college sweetheart, and worked for twelve years in her profession before her two sons came along. Reading with her children was one of her favorite ways to pass the time. In addition, working with her boys to write cards to family members for special occasions was also enjoyable. As Carolyn continues to raise her twelve-year and ten-year-old sons, she frequently writes about funny quotes or experiences regarding family time. Carolyn's ten-year-old son gave her the idea for this book. She presently lives in Howell, New Jersey, with her husband and sons.
