Nikki Shannon Smith is from Oakland, California, but she now lives
in Davis, CA with her husband and two children. She has worked in
elementary education for over twenty-five years, and writes everything from
picture books to young adult novels. Nikki has eleven published books, including The Little Christmas

packs in her suitcase is always a book.
