Sometimes We Pray
Mary Wagley Copp, author
Mary Wagley Copp is the author of Yoshi's Big Swim and Wherever I Go. She loved exploring the world with her parents and studying Spanish in Guadalajara, Mexico; visiting the symbol of ancient Greece, the Parthenon; or imagining how the Incans built Machu Picchu in Peru. She was always curious about how other people lived and how they spent their days. What was important to them? What were their joys and what were their struggles? What did they dream about? When she is not reading and writing stories, she teaches English as a second language to newcomers and has recently traveled to Ethiopia and beyond.
