Best Author
Margie Preus
We cant say that were surprised that Margi Preus was voted Best Author. For crying out loud, her first kids novel, Heart of a Samurai, is a 2011 Newbery Honor Book. Thats wildly impressive. But seriously speaking, Margi Preus also very, very funny. She and Jean Sramek have collaborated for years, writing and performing with the comedy troupe, Colder By the Lake. Her picture books include Celebritrees; Historic and Famous Trees of the World, which won the 2013 Flicker Tale Award.
