Pet Shop Girl

Duncan, Bebe: - Bebe Duncan is the author of Contemporary Young Adult novels in the Willamette High series, ALICE IN BLACK and PET SHOP GIRL, set in Portland, Oregon. Her realistic fiction focuses on social and family issues that teen girls face, from a first-person perspective, and on developing characters with challenges that resonate with readers. Long a writer of narrative nonfiction, she was reintroduced to YA by her daughter, and the sense of immediacy, the emotions portrayed, and the action in that genre inspired her to start noveling stat. She lives in Portland with her family and two humongous goldfish named Richard and Blanche. When she's not immersed in nouns and verbs or reading aloud as she edits, she revels in crime shows, YA fiction, WNBA games on TV, and walking a zillion miles a day.
