Christy Mihaly writes children's books, articles, stories, essays, and poems. She is particularly drawn to nonfiction -- all kinds of nonfiction! Her 2018 picture book, HEY, HEY, HAY! tells the story, in rhyming verse, about how by making hay we can store summer in a bale. Christy is a founding member of GROG, the group blog for writers and readers of children's literature. She has at various points made her home in eight different states and in Spain, and is now happily settled in rural Vermont where she writes under the supervision of her dog and cat.
