Candace Groth Fleming (born May 24, 1962)[1] is an American writer of children's books, both fiction and non-fiction.[2] She is the author of more than twenty books for children and young adults, including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize-honored The Family Romanov and the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award-winning biography, The Lincolns, among others.
In 2013, the Children's Book Council named Fleming a Children's Book Month Champion,[3] and in 2014, Fleming was awarded the Children’s Book Guild Nonfiction Award.[4] In 2016, she was a finalist for the NSK Neustadt Prize for Children's Literature, which "celebrates the importance of children's and young-adult literature and the impact it has on our children's minds."[5] Thirty-two of her books are Junior Library Guild selections.[6]
