Meet author Avi



Born in 1937 in New York, Avi did not start off as a good writer.  In fact, in high school Avi had to move to a different school where he could get more direct attention and tutoring to help me become a better student.  Those obstacles did not stop him though. He continued to work on his writing and today is a world renowed author and Newberry Medal winner.
