Theanne Griffith, PhD, can't get you into the Maker Maze (only Dr. Crisp can do that). But she can tell you a lot of cool science facts. She is a brain scientist by day (no, she's not a zombie) and a storyteller by night. She loves tinkering in the lab as much as she loves writing children's books. She lives in California with her family and three cats. Visit her online at theannegriffith.com or on Twitter at @doctheagrif. View titles by Theanne Griffith
