About Becky

Becky grew up in Northeast Wisconsin and spent most of her childhood playing in lakes and reading books. Shortly after graduating from Luther College, she spent a year working as a children’s bookseller at Barnes & Noble and soon discovered she enjoyed reading picture books more than anything else. Much, much more.

Now Becky spends her days writing children’s books and working at her local library. She is the author of several picture books, including How to Get Your Octopus to School which was nominated for three state book awards and was selected as one of the best books of the year by the Bank Street College of Education.

When she’s not reading or writing, Becky can be found hiking through the woods or baking something sweet. She currently lives in Central Wisconsin with her husband and two kids.
