Sally J. Pla is the award-winning author of several novels for young people, including The Someday Birds and Stanley Will Probably Be Fine. Many of Pla’s stories are based on her experience of raising three active boys, very close in age. When her sons were young and having a bad day, they loved being “made into burritos”–getting wrapped tightly in their blankets. The tight pressure appealed especially to Pla’s autistic son. Pla lives with her family in Southern California. You can find her online at sallyjpla.com.
