Annie Barrows

Annie Barrows has written either twenty-seven or twenty-nine books, depending on how you define the word "book." Most of them are for kids; she has written picture books, chapter books, mid-grade books, and even a book for teenagers. Like Iggy, she would go to great lengths to protect her candy, but unlike Iggy, she would never ever eat a banana Laffy Taffy.
