Tobergte, Amy: - AMY TOBERGTE lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, with her husband Nick, her energetic son Dominic, and theirmischievous dog Gertie. Writing has been her favorite way to express herself ever since she was a kid scribbling stories in homemade "books." When she's not sprouting tall tales, Amy loves cooking up zany recipes with Dominic-because like every great meal, every great story deserves a little flavor (and a bit of mess).
