American Dirt
Shelli R. Johannes is coauthor of the six books in the LOVES SCIENCE PB series including CECE LOVES SCIENCE, (co/Kimberly Derting/HarperCollins Greenwillow), the upcoming HOW TO BE A UNICORN (HarperChildren’s Fall 2021) & THESAURUS (Penguin/Philomel, Fall 2021).
She is also the critically-acclaimed author of teen novels and thrillers (written as SR Johannes) including the NATURE OF GRACE series (Untraceable), Uncontrollable, Unstoppable), REWIRED, & ON THE BRIGHT SIDE.
Shelli never warmed up to creepy-crawly bugs, but she always loved zoology and biology. In fact, she can often be found on highways and country roads saving strays and other jaywalking critters, or volunteering with animal conservation groups like the Atlanta Zoo, the Dolphin Project, and Bosley’s puppy orphanage. After earning a master’s in marketing and working in Corporate America as an SVP, Shelli traded out her heels and suits for flip-flops and jeans so she could follow her passion of writing.
Shelli lives in Atlanta with pack: British husband, two kids, one bird, one fish, and two crazy-haired dogs who hate veggies.
