Polly Holyoke

Polly Holyoke has been imagining stories since she was in fifth grade. When she isnt writing, Polly loves reading, camping, skiing, scuba diving and hiking in the desert (where she quite stupidly got herself bitten by a rattlesnake). She lives with three rescue dogs, two spoiled cats and a nice husband who is tolerant about the piles of books all over their house. Her debut middlegrade novel, THE NEPTUNE PROJECT, is the story of a young girl leading a group of genetically altered teens fighting to survive in the sea. She is thrilled that this novel was published by Disney/Hyperion in May, 2013 and Puffin Books UK will release it in June, 2014. She thinks the best part about being an author is going to work in her sweatpants and getting paid for daydreaming!
