Margo Sorenson is the author of more than 30 books for young readers. A National Milken Educator and Minnesota Book Award finalist in YA fiction, Margo's newest Young Adult/crossover adult novel is Secrets in Translation (Fitzroy Books, November 2018). What seventeen-year-old girl wouldn't want to return to Italy and meet a handsome, young, Italian university student? For Alessandra, the answer is more complicated—and dangerous. Her latest picture books are Calvin Gets the Last Word, (Tilbury House, 2020), in which Calvin wants to find just the right word to describe his super-annoying older brother, and readers will be surprised by the word he chooses, and Little Calabash (Island Heritage Publishing, 2021) who shows how useful he can be amidst the star players in the kitchen.
