Will Benhardt lives in Troy, Missouri with his mother, father, several younger brothers, and one sister. While dreaming of becoming an author, he is presently practicing the craft. At the age of eleven this was his first book and there are several more in the works. Will also displays musical talent playing both the piano and guitar. Other interests include playing baseball, rooting for the St. Louis Cardinals, and helping his father in Snow Hill, the family plant nursery. Maybe that's where he first became interested in the water cycle....watering the plants. He also excels at school, making his parents happy and setting a good example for his siblings.
