Let Go, Lean In an Interview with Amanda Cleary Eastep Episode 119

Amanda Cleary Eastep is not related to Beverly Cleary but
wishes she were. She is, however, a children’s author, and the
Tree Street Kids is her middle grade series for readers 8-12.
Amanda knows kids because she’s still one at heart. When she
is forced to act like an adult, she edits nonfiction books by
grownup authors. Amanda lives and writes in the mountains of
North Carolina but has spent most of her life in the suburbs of
Chicago, the home of the Tree Street Kids.
