Trenton Lee Stewart, graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop and author of the New York Times bestselling novel The Mysterious Benedict Society and the adult novel Flood Summer, lives in Arkansas with his wife and two sons. Of his characters, Trenton says, I wish I had Reynie's shrewdness and his gift of perception, just as I wish I could read as quickly and remember as well as Sticky does, and be as acrobatic as Kate, and have a fraction of Constance's ability to say what she thinks. Look for The Mysterious Benedict Society on audio from Listening Library.
