Peter Roop was born in Winchester, Massachusetts in 1951. Since graduating from Lawrence University in 1973, he has been teaching elementary school. By the early days of his education Roop decided to try writing for the children for the first time, and this was a misleading concept, and I'm sure he will succeed did. He quickly discovered that his chosen work was difficult, but while trying to teach about the British fullbright exchanging program, the loop worked hard while writing and publishing his first short story and articles. In 1980, he got a master's degree in children's literature from the Simon's College Children's Literature Research Center in Boston where he studied Newbury's medalist Scott Odell in order to improve his education and writing skills.
Inspired by his mentor, Ropp wrote many books in distant places and historical periods. He wrote everything from science to biography, from a novel to a joke in collaboration with his wife Connie. Whether alone or jointly, Roop publishes 50 volumes of books, seven of which are the selection of Reading Rainbow. He continues to teach seminars for students, teachers and parents. His success, which helped students achieve creative efforts, gave him a nickname of "The Pied Piper of Writing". He is also the best teacher of the year in Wisconsin.
