​Roxanne Troup writes kid's books that celebrate wonder and family. With a background in education, she also writes engaging nonfiction for all ages.
Roxanne lives in the mountains of Colorado and loves hiking with her family, cheering at her kid's sporting events, and reading a good book. She often visits schools to water seeds of literacy and teach about writing. (And sometimes remembers to water the plants in her own garden.)

my childhood home
1) Roxanne grew up in a historic home, surrounded by farmland and legends. Her childhood home was often visited by members of the James-Younger gang and full of stories about hidden passageways, underground tunnels, and false floors.
​2) Roxanne discovered a love for reading the summer she broke her neck in a gymnastics accident. 
3) Roxanne has always had a vivid imagination. As a child, she couldn't always tell if she was awake or dreaming. (Sometimes, it's still hard.)
4) Besides reading and family, Roxanne loves: interior design, gardening, and singing. (And good-quality chocolate. Can't forget the chocolate.)
5) She is afraid of octopuses and falling.
6) Roxanne taught preschool (and subbed kindergarten) until her kids were born. Today, she and her husband own 5 small businesses.
