Sarah Ackerley
November 2008

Sarah Ackerley grew up in Waxahachie, Texas in a family of seven children. Her parents had a reputation for giving books as gifts for all holidays-Valentine's Day included, and so Sarah had no choice but to read them. Fortunately, she loved to read and she developed an early fascination with picture books that she never lost.

Sarah was thrilled when her first picture book, PATRICK THE SOMNAMBULIST, was published in April 2008 by Blooming Tree Press. PATRICK THE SOMNAMBULIST features the adventures extraordinaire of one sleepwalking, plunger wearing, superstar penguin who becomes the talk of the penguin community and the world's first multi-millionaire penguin under the age of seven all in one 32 page book. Wow.
