Eileen Lagasse was born in 1950 in Fall River, MA to a French-Canadian father and Portuguese mother. After her retirement from 42 years in Financial Services, she began spending many days with her 5-year-old grandson, Brady Scammons. In addition to going places, building forts, and playing games, she enjoyed sharing her love of reading with Brady. Together they began writing children books incorporating many of the times they shared. Their first book, Poop in my Soup, was sparked in a restaurant restroom!
