Annie Wilde

Annie Wilde was born in London, England. Annie's life has been full of twists and turns, back roads, main roads, highways, and junctions ... all eventually leading to retirement on the Italian island of Sicily. Upon sorting through a lifetime of memorabilia stored in her garage, she stumbled upon a box of writings and drawings that were from a time of bedtime storytelling with her children and grandchildren. So, with time on her hands she decided to develop some of the characters and create Emma Puff's Secrets Series! To her delight, the first-time author's debut, Rusty and Emma's Big Shock!, won the 36th Annual Independent Book Publisher's Association Benjamin Franklin Award's Silver Medal for Fiction: Young Readers (8-12).
