GARY PAULSEN Author for 1 st grade or higher

CAREER Gary Paulsen has had a wild life, he ran away from home at age 14 to join a carnival! He is now 75 years old and has written over 200 books! Could you imagine? He was able to write the books he had mostly from personal experience because he lived in the outdoors without his parents and learned to live in the wild. Paulsen was also able to participate the Iditarod dog races! Wouldn’t that be something to write about? He is very talented and lived a full life.
