Melody Carlson is an American author of fiction. She was born in 1956 and has become a prolific generator of fiction, penning dozens of fictional novels for her readers to consume. She has won several awards and in addition to writing creative stories for adults has also taken some time out to write books for teen readers as well. There have been millions of copies of her books sold over the years.

Melody first became an officially published author in 1997 with the release of her cute book about a squirrel in the forest who is afraid. The book was titled Tupsu. It is a colorful picture book that is filled with wonderful illustrations, an engaging story, and lessons for the reader. The squirrel lives a simple life in the forest, which is filled with sunlight. However, there is more danger than one would think, including a crafty fox that exerts its influence on the innocent little mammal. When the little animal meets another just like him, he is inspired and may have found a companion in the world of the forest at last.

Carlson’s first series that was published was called the Allison Chronicles. The book series has four novels in it. It was a series that she wrote to appeal to young teens from middle school to high school age. The stories feature a young girl who is feeling lost in the days that follow W.W.II. Without a father in her life and with her famous mother being far too busy to pay attention to her daughter, Allison must find out what the love of a family is really about when she discovers an old letter and sets out on a fantastic adventure.

Each novel in the series is named for a color. In the first installment of the series, the main characters are a young girl named Jordan and her very close friend, Kara.
