Suzanne also has a rhyming picture book illustrated by Mike Lester entitled When Charlie McButton Lost Power. What you might find.? Well, that’s the story of Gregor the Overlander, the first book in her five-part series, The Underland Chronicles. In New York City, you’re much more likely to fall down a manhole than a rabbit hole and, if you do, you’re not going to find a tea party. Thinking one day about Alice in Wonderland, she was struck by how pastoral the setting must seem to kids who, like her own, lived in urban surroundings. While working on a Kids WB show called Generation O! she met children’s author James Proimos, who talked her into giving children’s books a try. She also co-wrote the critically acclaimed Rankin/Bass Christmas special, Santa, Baby! Most recently she was the Head Writer for Scholastic Entertainment’s Clifford’s Puppy Days.

For preschool viewers, she penned multiple stories for the Emmy-nominated Little Bear and Oswald. She has worked on the staffs of several Nickelodeon shows, including the Emmy-nominated hit Clarissa Explains it All and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo. Since 1991, Suzanne Collins has been busy writing for children’s television. Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.

In Catching Fire, the second novel of the Hunger Games trilogy, Suzanne Collins continues the story of Katniss Everdeen, testing her more than ever before.

If they can't prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying. As time draws near for Katniss and Peeta to visit the districts on the Capitol's cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. And what scares her even more is that she's not entirely convinced she should try. Much to her shock, Katniss has fueled an unrest that she's afraid she cannot stop. And there are whispers of a rebellion against the Capitol-a rebellion that Katniss and Peeta may have helped create. Peeta has turned his back on her completely. Yet nothing is the way Katniss wishes it to be.

After all, she has returned to her family and her longtime friend, Gale. She and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark are miraculously still alive. Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the Hunger Games.
