About the Author
Tiffany Everett grew up in Auburn, Alabama, where she first developed her lifelong love of nature. She enjoys exploring America by camper and has visited forty states and twenty-six national parks, encountering moose, bears, wolves, alligators, a bobcat, and even a mountain lion. (At least she thinks she saw a mountain lion -- they're so sneaky!) When she's not drawing, Tiffany enjoys playing video games, cooking, birding, kayaking, and identifying every animal she sees. Diary of a Nature Nerd is Tiffany's graphic novel debut and is inspired by her own travels with her furry sidekick, Tuco, a rescue dog who's always up for an adventure.
