Gail Jarrow wrote her first story, “The King’s Lesson,” at age seven.
She has been writing ever since. A fascination with science led her to
study biology in college and later to teach elementary and middle school
science. Combining her science background with her writing skills, Ms.
Jarrow began her publishing career writing science articles.
Since 1985, she has written novels and science books
for middle-grade children and young adults. Her magazine articles and stories
have appeared in Highlights, Cricket, Child Life, Spider, 3-2-1 Contact,
Boys’ Quest & Pennywhistle Press.
“I write for young people because I
believe it’s important for children to discover the joy and satisfaction
of reading,” says Gail. “My goal is to provide pleasure and entertainment,
while broadening my reader’s view of the world.”
Gail received her B.A. degree from Duke University
and M.A. from Dartmouth College. She has taught science, math and writing
in grades 4-8. Currently she is a writing instructor for adults.
