Her books have won many awards, including the New York Public Library Best Book for Teens, the Children's Book Council Notable Book, Reading Rainbow Book, and the International Reading Association Children's Choices.The love of books began when her father, a German professor at S.M.U. in Dallas, read to her from an early age, which led to careers as teacher, librarian, and writer. Books also gave her the desire to see the world. She spent one summer bicycling around Europe and another traveling in North Africa and the Middle East. When she married Tom, an architect, they set out on a yearlong trip around the world, traveling by freighter and living for a time in a Buddhist temple.
