As an artist

Kelly Bennett loves fish, and they provided a source of inspiration for her picture book Not Norman: A Goldfish Story. “Fish are fun and funny,” she says. “Just watching them makes me laugh.” When she's not writing, Kelly creates tile mosaics and digs in her garden. She has two grown children, Max and Lexi, and lives in Texas with her husband, Curtis, and their goldfish – whom she would never trade.
