Howifoundtheperfdressfinalsmall HOW I FOUND THE PERFECT DRESS, in stores May 6th! In this sequel to WHY I LET MY HAIR GROW OUT, Morgan continues her magical and romantic adventures. Are there any leprechauns in Connecticut? Morgan's going to have to find out!


My_life_cover_final MY LIFE: THE MUSICAL. Two Broadway- obsessed teens must confront the truth about their favorite musical, their mysterious idol, their friendship and themselves, all accompanied by showtunes!

"...a love letter to the theater...I highly recommend this title for theater buffs from middle school and up...Any 'drama club geek from the suburbs' (as the author describes herself) will be completely unable to resist..." —Jen Robinson's Book Page

"...a book for every kid who has ever fallen in love with theatre, whether they want to be the star, the stage manager, or the devoted fan..." —Reading Fool Blog


Why_i_let_my_hairmedium_1 WHY I LET MY HAIR GROW OUT is the story of a tough-on- the-outside, tender-on- the-inside American teen who discovers her inner goddess when a bike tour of Ireland turns into a wild, magical journey into the past, complete with faeries, mermaids, and a truly enchanted romance.

Nominated for ALA's Popular Paperbacks, and a 2007 Hall of Fame selection for Teens Read Too. Watch for the sequel ! It's called HOW I FOUND THE PERFECT DRESS, and it's coming in May '08.

SexkittensmediumSEX KITTENS AND HORN DAWGS FALL IN LOVE. Can a fourteen- year-old poet use a science fair project to unmask the Secret of Love? (And win the heart of her crush along the way?). Here's what reviewers said:

“...irresistible...It’s the literary equivalent of singer Cyndi Lauper’s 1980s pop megahit ‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’....” — Cleveland Plain Dealer

“...an effervescent delight... Felicia’s voice is one of the most original and hilarious in years...”  — Common Sense Media

“An uproariously funny debut novel...giddy humor, intrigues, and captivating characters... strong, pitch-perfect narration will easily win readers...” — ALA Booklist

“.....squeaky clean and lots of good fun...” — School Library Journal

“... pure entertainment.” — Kirkus Reviews

“...sweet and upbeat...Wood’s effervescent, often idiosyncratic style rather suggests P.G. Wodehouse as a Greenwich Village girl...will quickly snare admiring readers...” RECOMMENDED — The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

And check out all the books by the great YA authors on my friends list!

HeroesMy mom! She's awesome.

And here are some nice things people have said about WHY I LET MY HAIR GROW OUT:

"[This] is a rockin' book! It includes a dude who is madly in love with a toad and speaks romantic soliloquies to it that are very funny; a talking horse; several extremely hot guys; magical mysteries; a character called Mrs. Boob, and much more that makes me recommend it very extremely highly. – E. Lockhart, author of The Boyfriend List, The Boy Book, Fly On The Wall and Dramarama.

“This romantic and magical adventure had me cheering and laughing out loud. I can’t wait for the sequel!” – Sarah Mlynowski, author of Bras & Broomsticks, Frogs & French Kisses, and Spells & Sleeping Bags

“I felt the need to snicker non-stop.”— teen reviewer for Fredericksburg.com

"...an engaging voice and attitude to spare." — BookLoons
