Author Information

"""Goodnight, Campsite"" was born of a love of camping and books, and it filled a rather large void, children's books about recreational vehicles (RVs). Author Loretta Sponsler had looked high and low for camping books to take along on her family's RV adventures. While general, tent camping books abounded, specific books featuring RVs were nowhere to be found. Well, she thought, ""I'll write one - one my boys will love!"" Loretta was born and raised in New Mexico, currently lives in California, and travels all over the country, although the West holds a particular spot in her heart. She has a degree in journalism and worked most of her career as a technical writer and editor with the U.S. Government. Now Loretta is a full-time mom, part-time writer. Loretta and her family, complete with three young boys, have traveled all over the United States, pulling a travel trailer and camping along the way. See you on the trails!"
