S.A. Schneider

S.A. Schneider has a wolf. And the wolf, Hunter, tells the most wonderful stories, but can’t hold a pencil. So S.A. Gets to write them all down and take credit for all of those great stories!

Together they create worlds for kid’s imaginations to run wild.

Since his own childhood, S.A. Has enjoyed creating entire universes of imagination. Now, he brings these worlds to life in adventurous middle grade fantasy books that spark creativity and curiosity.
