Kim Griswell was a book lover from<br />
an early age, just like Rufus. Day after day,<br />
Kim watched her big sister grab her lunchbox,<br />
books, and pencil box, and head off to school.<br />
Kim wished with all her heart that she could<br />
go, too. That longing was the inspiration for<br />
Rufus Goes to School, Kim’s first picture book.<br />
Kim has been a burger flipper, a waitress,<br />
a five-and-dime clerk, a college secretary, a<br />
university lecturer, a book editor, and, most of<br />
all, the mother of five children. She has taught<br />
writing workshops all over the country, and<br />
has written about everything from flesh-eating<br />
plants to exploding toilets. She now spends<br />
her days writing and editing children’s books<br />
in a little red house in Ashland, Oregon.<br />
