Sam Wedelich

Sam Wedelich never learned how to sit still! Following her curiosity has led to window display jobs, calligraphy, baking, learning accordion, and now: picture book author/illustrator. Sam brings her quippy humor to the page with a retelling of a classic: CHICKEN LITTLE: THE REAL AND TOTALLY TRUE TALE, out in May 2020 from Scholastic Press with CHICKEN LITTLE AND THE BIG BAD WOLF coming in 2021. Sam lives in the Bronx with her family and too many houseplants. She's represented by Molly O'Neill at Root Literary. Find her online at samwedelich.com and on Instagram @samwedelich
