Autor

Children's fiction writer Katherine Green first realized she wanted to be a writer when she was six years old. A career as a television writer took a turn when she penned her new middle-grade magical realism novel, A Freak in the Family, a unique story of self-discovery for a sixth-grade girl centered around racial literacy, ancestral history, and white privilege.When her character Kit Higglby, ashamed of her family name and history, discovers that a family legend of a magical tree is actually true, it brings her on a time travel adventure where she confronts her family's real history, the value of genuine friendships, and our country's early prejudices and their continued persistence. Katherine hopes her young readers come away from her story with a sense of enjoyment, introspection, and self-evaluation that lasts long after the book is closed.Katherine lives in Los Angeles, California, with a cat named Scratchy McBitey. A Freak in the Family is her debut children's novel.
