Laura Numeroff
Laura Joffe Numeroff (born July 14, 1953) is an American author and illustrator of children's books who is best known as the author of ''If You Give a Mouse a Cookie''.
==Early life==
Numeroff was born in Brooklyn, New York, and is the youngest of three girls. As a child, Numeroff was an avid reader and by the age of 9 had decided she wanted to be a writer when she became an adult. She credits her current profession to two specific childhood favorites and has claimed that they "are the reason" she is a writer: E. B. White's ''Stuart Little'' and Kay Thompson's ''Eloise''.
When it came time for Numeroff to apply for college, she decided not to become a writer. Instead, she followed her sister's footsteps and majored in fashion. Eventually though, Numeroff decided that fashion "wasn't for me". She went back to her childhood dream of becoming a writer and began taking a class on writing.〔 A homework assignment for one of these classes prompted Numeroff to write the story ''Amy for Short''. In 1976, the story was published by Macmillan Publishing and launched Laura Joffe Numeroff's writing career.〔
