BookShelf - Margaret Davidson

First thing's first, I'm going to find as much info as I can on Margaret Davidson for those grade school students and teachers that keep contacting me as if I were her...

Margaret Davidson is a fairly prolific writer, mostly of biographies and non-fiction.  She is perhaps most well-known for her biographical duo: Helen Keller and Helen Keller's Teacher.  I myself have only read these two and Five True Horse Stories.  I remember thinking they were all wonderful.

This author apparently grew up and currently lives in New York with her husband and (as all good authors must ;) her cat.  (Sources: Harcourt School Publishers and Mocha Memoirs)

If you would like to try writing to Mrs. Davidson, I suggest sending a letter either through Scholastic or RandomHouse publishers.  RandomHouse gives this method of address to attempt reaching their authors:
