Sarah Cannon, author of Oddity, has lived all over the U.S., but right now she calls Indiana home. She has a husband, three kids and a misguided dog. Sarah holds a B.S. in Education. She's a nerdy knitting gardener who drinks a lot of coffee, and eats a lot of raspberries. She is probably human.
Praise for Oddity: ""I've never read anything like this wonderful book. An infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of typewriters have a story they want to share with you, and they're going by the name Sarah Cannon so as to be inconspicuous. Do yourself a favor and take Oddity from their little monkey fingers."" --Adam Rex, author of The True Meaning of Smekday ""This book grabbed me from page one. Wild, whacky, and yet utterly believable. You will love Ada and ODDITY!"" --Sage Blackwood, author of Jinx ""Sarah Cannon is puppet master of this delightfully dark and hilariously creepy debut. Herein, you'll find excitement, adventure, and heart--and I don't just mean the kind you'd be likely to discover, still beating (perhaps even beatboxing), in a jar at the local Oddity grocery."" --Heidi Schulz, New York Times Bestselling author of Hook's Revenge ""Readers will be hooked from the first page. . . . Like Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book, Cannon's work takes a sardonic tone, blending humor, darkness, suspense, and the enduring metaphorical battle of good vs. evil. . . . Featuring a diverse cast of characters, this fantasy is chock-full of adventure and agency, making it a must-buy and a must-read for most -middle graders."" --School Library Journal ""Utterly endearing. A charming, enjoyable thrill ride with memorable characters, crazy creatures, and a theme about the importance of family."" --Booklist ""This blend of the absurd and the supernatural is perfect for the imaginative young reader who appreciates eerie occurrences and a little wicked puppetry but isn't quite ready for the button-eyed beldam in Coraline."" --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
