About the author
Skaie Knox singer/songwriter and a first-time children’s book author, resides with her husband, Matt in Manhattan Beach, California. “Big Bug Lunch!” is book 1 in a series of 10 called “The Klunker Kapers”. The title track “Big Bug Lunch!” was initially written on the pages of a Reader’s Digest; makeshift writing material found on her bedside table. The song came about because Skaie wanted to write an original tune for her cousin Pam’s kindergarten class. Her immediate goals are to promote her book & CD and to secure a publishing deal with a creatively supportive and established publishing house.
Skaie’s musical career includes performing live (opening for artists like Tori Amos, Dishwalla, Lilith Faire, Randy Newman), writing and recording numerous albums and songs for her bands and film (Holiday Baggage (Lifetime movie), American Crime, Black Dahlia Returns) & television (MTV’s Making the Video, Punk’d, The Real World), touring nationally and throughout Canada and Africa, and music directing live theatre in Hollywood, CA (Shakespeare’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream”, “Twelfth Night”).
