Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Jeanne Bender grew up in Sheboygan, WI, the second oldest of 8 children. After a successful business career, Bender, who loves children, and loves to write, decided to create a fun, adventurous, children’s book series. Her goal was to provide boys and girls with easy-to-read chapter brooks at a second-grade reading level. Her aim was to encourage children to advance from picture books into their first chapter books without being intimidated. So, Bender chose a large font format, kept the chapters short, and included many color illustrations. At the time, Jeanne’s cocker spaniel named La Petite Lindie Lou, was traveling the world with her. Because of her puppy’s adventurous spirit and adorable personality, Bender decided to write the books about their experiences, and the Lindie Lou Adventure Series books were born. Her protagonist, a puppy named Lindie Lou, travels to a different place in each book, where she meets up with her brothers, sisters, and family members. They encounter new friends and learn social emotional lessons (SEL) along the way, which are highlighted in red letters in each one of the books. To prepare for her undertaking of writing the Lindie Lou Adventure Series books, Bender studied with a creative writing professor in Seattle, WA, took summer literature classes at Oxford University in the UK, and formed a group of elementary school educators to help her provide age appropriate content. Bender's ultimate ambition is to encourage children to discover the world through the joy of reading. Bender lives in Seattle, WA San Diego, CA and Cabo San Lucas, MX.
