Ransom has published more than 180 books for children, and she is amazed every day that she's able to do this as her life's work. It's no small thing to discover at an early age (ten!) what one is meant to do, and then pursue that dream. For her, the best part of writing for children is that she can move between writing board books, picture books, easy readers, chapter books, middle grade novels, nonfiction, and biography. She was excited to move into picture book nonfiction with BONES IN THE WHITE HOUSE: THOMAS JEFFERSON'S MAMMOTH (Doubleday, 2020) and ONLY MARGARET: A STORY ABOUT MARGARET WISE BROWN (Eerdmans, 2021). Her newest middle grade novel, JUNEBERRY BLUE, was published in 2024 by Peachtree Books. AMANDA PANDA QUITS KINDERGARTEN and the sequel AMANDA PANDA AND THE BIGGER, BETTER BIRTHDAY (Doubleday) are her first picture books with animal characters! She is proud of her easy readers featuring a brother and sister having fun throughout the year: PUMPKIN DAY, APPLE PICKING DAY, SNOW DAY, GARDEN DAY, BEACH DAY and more. Look for the latest titles in this Level 1 series written in bouncy rhyme, plus the popular TOOTH FAIRY'S NIGHT and GO, GO, TRACTORS! (all Random House).
