Mary Pope was born in Fort Sill,Oklahoma, the daughter of William Pope,a United States Army Colonel, and Barrette (nee Dickens ), a home maker. Osborne has a twin brother, Bill, a younger brother, and an older sister,
Natalie, who has collaborated with her. Until she was 15, Osborne’s family relocated often to her fathers career; the family lived in Oklahoma, Austria, Florida, and on four different Army posts before ending up in North Carolina, where the family settled retired. I like her because she is a good writer. My favorite of her books is “ Dingos at dinner time.” Its about a dog, dingos of course, Jack, and Any.
