Teresa Argenbright was lucky to have been raised by a mother who loved crossword puzzles and invented silly words to solve them. She developed her own love for language that grew through her experiences writing advertising campaigns, non-profit grant requests, and fun poems for friends and family. Teresa splits her time between Fort Worth, Texas, and the mountains of Colorado. When she's not creating stories, she can likely be found on the nearest dance floor. Charlotte and Penelope and the Neighborhood Stage is her second installment in the Charlotte and Penelope series.
