Author Pearson says that she has been enamored with character and story since her childhood days. Her mother used to tell her that she was the most annoying kid as she used to take up a new character each day. People used to ask author Pearson in the morning as what character she was playing on that particular day, otherwise she would not answer to any of their questions. On one occasion she got lost at the age of four while she was out for shopping with her parents. When they could not find her anywhere they decided to go to the police.
But soon, they heard a voice on the loudspeaker that the parents of Little Red Riding Hood should come and get her from the counter. This was the character that author Pearson was playing on that day and instead of telling her real name to the founders, she chose to tell the name of her character. But her parents were smart enough to find out that it was her. However, these days she wakes up all by herself, but still continues to work out some characters during the day time. During her second grade, author Pearson was very fond of her teacher, Mrs. Alsenz, who used to tell some very good stories to the class. This trend continued till her 12th grade as author Pearson came across a number of inspiring teachers who helped her to develop her storytelling skills. Later, she joined the State University of Long Beach and obtained her BFA. Before getting married and giving birth to her children, author Pearson worked for a small time as an artist.

During the same time, author Pearson joined the University of San Diego and earned her teaching credentials.
After that she began her teaching career and got assigned to a number of grades during the course of her short teaching career. She says that it was the students from the second grade who pushed her into writing once again. During the Writing Workshop periods, author Pearson used to sit with the students and write her stories. She used to enjoy the process as well as the stories that she used to write. After a while, she decided to return back to her first love, and publish some of her own stories. Author believes that writing is not an easy job as she had to face a lot of rejections in the beginning. But, it was persistence that kept her going and helped her to succeed in the end as a writer.
