About the Author :

Franklyn Mansfield Branley has contributed to Earthquakes as an author. Branley is a co-founder of the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. He is Astronomer Emeritus and former Chairman of the American Museum-Hayden Planetarium.

Megan Lloyd has contributed to Earthquakes as an illustrator. Brenda Z. Guiberson thinks there is no reason a book can't have a cactus as the main character. "If four and five-year-old children are interested in natural science," she says, "why channel them in a different direction?" Anyone who reads "Cactus Hotel" is sure to agree.
Ms. Guiberson is the author of several books for children. She lives in Seattle, Washington.
Megan Lloyd read the manuscript for "Cactus Hotel" and went to the Saguaro National Monument in Arizona herself. "I like to "see" what I am going to illustrate rather than make it up," she says.
Ms. Lloyd is the illustrator
