Hello! Thanks for visiting my web site. My name is Marfé Ferguson Delano, and I write all sorts of nonfiction books for kids of all ages.

People often ask me how my first name is pronounced, so I'll tell you up front: It's "mar-FAYE." My last name is pronounced "DELL-uh-no." On my web site you can learn more about me and my books and get information about inviting me to your school.

Helen's Eyes: A Photobiography of Annie Sullivan, Helen's Keller's Teacher, was named a 2009 Jefferson Cup Honor Book! The Jefferson Cup is an annual award given by the Virginia Library Association that honors biographies, historical fiction, and American history books for kids. I'm honored to be honored by my fellow Virginians. Find out more about this book.
