The Pinballs - Author Betsy Byers
To find out more about the author of The Pinballs, Betsy Byers you can go to her official website at http://www.betsybyars.com/index.html Be sure to click on the links. I love the timeline of her life. It's done in cartoon drawings. Click on the link to the left called Autobio.
As I explored the site I found she had some writing tips that are pretty cool. I'm a writer because I'm in college and I secretly always wanted to be a writer so these tips were good for me too. They are at http://www.betsybyars.com/writing.html.
Read about Ms. Byers and then start on the book. Check back here to find questions to help you learn more!
Keep Reading!
