About the Author
Holly Jahangiri is the author of Trockle; A Puppy, Not a Guppy; and A New Leaf for Lyle. She draws inspiration from her family, from her own childhood adventures (some of which only happened in her overactive imagination), and from readers both young and young at heart. Holly is 2025-2026 President of the Poetry Society of Texas, a member of the National Federation of State Poetry Societies, and serves on the Board of Poets Northwest, a chapter of PST. She lives in Houston, Texas, with her husband, J.J., whose love and encouragement make writing books twice the fun.
