Emily Kate Moon has always been a big fan of water. She's been drinking it and splashing in it all her life! But growing up in California during a long drought meant she didn't see much of it fall from the sky. It wasn't until Emily moved to Florida that she met Drop, who showed her a thing or two about the water cycle. Emily is a cloud-gazer and artist. She loves to marvel at the wonders of nature, and writes and paints as a way to appreciate her world. She lives by the beach in Jupiter, Florida, with her two sons and their dog Romeo--who is, as it happens, afraid of water!
