A. T. QURESHI is the Pakistani Muslim American author of the three-volume Baby Dragon series and the upcoming Dragon Racer series. Her most recent book is Rider of Dragons (Dragon Racer #1) (Avon Books). Qureshi grew up on Long Island, New York, in a very loud household, surrounded by English (for school), Urdu (for conversation), and Punjabi (for emotion). She spent much of her childhood grounded for reading past her bedtime, writing stories in the backs of her notebooks, and being scolded by teachers for passing chapters under the desks. Through her writing, she wishes to inspire love for the beautiful country and rich culture that informed much of her identity. When she’s not writing, she loves to travel to new places to explore different cultures or return to Pakistan to reconnect with her roots.
