Richard Peck is a 78 years old American novelist. He was born April 10, 1934 in Decatur in the US-State Illinois. He attended elementary and high schools in Decatur. He writes stories for young adults and won several awards. Peck began to work as a high school teacher before he was transferred to a junior high school to teach English. After a while, he decided to cut his career short and write. However, these observations about junior high school students proved excellent material for his books ( – as we experienced at our story “I go along”).
He said, “Ironically, it was my students who taught me to be a writer, though I was hired to teach them. “ After college, he was drafted into the US Army as a chaplain’s Assistant and spent two years serving in Stuttgart, Germany. After his military service ended, he stared to teach junior high and high school English. He left teaching in 1971 to write his first novel, ”Don’t look and it won’t hurt”. He has written a book each year since then: totaling 41 books in 41 years. He currently lives in New York and divides his time between writing and traveling.
