Mary Boone’s book research has taken her places many people have never been … chest deep in the Union River to count salmon, inside a cricket barn, and, perhaps most daring of all, the front row of a Justin Bieber concert surrounded by screaming teens. Mary has written 70+ nonfiction books for young readers, most recently Pedal Pusher, School of Fish, and Bugs for Breakfast.

Two more books are set for release in 2026: Flying Feminist and Unfathomable: 20 (Wild But True) Stories of the Sea.

Mary and her family live in Tacoma, WA, with a stubborn Airedale terrier named Ruthie Bader.
