Nancy Tandon

Nancy Tandon loves to share stories that entertain and encourage young readers. Her debut middle grade novel, The Way I Say It, was a Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection, an Indies Introduce and Kids’ Indies Next pick, a Georgia Book Award nominee and an Indiana Read Aloud selection. Her most recent novel, The Ghost of Spruce Point, was named to the Texas Bluebonnet Master List and is an homage to coastal Maine. Nancy is a former teacher, speech-language pathologist, and adjunct professor of phonetics and child language development, all of which helped plant seeds for stories about awesome kids doing brave things. A transplant from the Midwest, Nancy now lives in Connecticut with her family where she snacks on popcorn and supports literacy outreach programs of all kinds.
