Anne Vittur Kennedy has been illustrating children’s books for over thirty years. She is now both author and illustrator of her books, and has received awards including the International Reading Association’s Teacher’s Choice Award, the Green Earth Book Award, “Notable Book” by the American Library Association, the Irma S. Black Honor Book, and the Charlotte Zolotow Highly Commended Book.

She creates fun and humorous stories, and her life long love of animals is evident in most of her work. She and her husband, Jack, have owned a cat, two dogs, and two horses, but as a kid Anne only had a cat, a mouse, and an unfortunate series of turtles. Besides writing and illustrating, she enjoys riding, travel, singing, bread pudding, and laughing with friends until someone snorts.

(Albert Whitman & Company), One Cuddly Puppy & One Christmas Bear (Thomas Nelson), I'm Not Sleepy by Trish Holland (Golden Books), One Big Turkey & One Spring Lamb (Thomas Nelson), Ragweed's Farm Dog Handbook (Candlewick), The Zoo is Closed Today! by Evelyn Beilenson (Peter Pauper Press), Peace Week in Miss Fox's Class written by Eileen Spinelli (Albert Whitman) winner of the International Reading Association's Teacher's Choices Award; Miss Fox's Class Goes Green (Spinelli/ Albert Whitman), winner of the Green Earth Book Award; The Farmer's Away!
