Jeff Miller is a middle-grade author and former camp counselor originally from Kent, Ohio. He loves snow, coffee, and visiting schools to connect with young readers. His mom, a 2018 heart transplant recipient, has always inspired him to face life with humor and heart. He is the author of The Nerdy Dozen series, middle-grade books about video games, friendship, top-secret aircraft, positivity, and ostriches. His latest middle-grade novel, Rare Birds, is authentically inspired by his personal experience of living through his own parent's heart transplant. Miller currently lives in Chicago, where he keeps asking his cats for writing advice.

"Using compassionate prose, Miller (King of the Mall) tenderly captures Graham's fear and courage in the face of uncertainty, sensitively rendering his processing of a difficult situation." --Publishers Weekly "It's a sincerely stirring story, and Graham is beautifully written, given room to explore complicated emotions and navigate a deep relationship with his mother. A compassionate contemplation of the business of truly living a life." --Booklist
