Meagan Roppo

Meagan grew up near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with a loving

family and dreams in her head. Short fiction, poetry, journaling,

travel, journalism--whatever kind of writing it is, Meagan has a

passion for it. She was inspired to write "Mari and Sheila" after

hearing an environmental activist speak at her college, and wrote

it with the intent of encouraging young readers to become

self-aware of their effect on the environment. "Mari and Sheila" is

Meagan's first children's book.
