Melissa Wiley is a pen name for Melissa Anne Peterson (born December 17, 1968). She is the author of two book series about Laura Ingalls Wilder's ancestors, the Martha Years and the Charlotte Years. She resides in San Diego, CA with her husband, the comic book editor and author Scott Peterson, and six children. One of her sons (born December 9, 2003) has hearing loss. Her oldest daughter (born June 7, 1995) had leukemia, but recovered. She is a stay-at-home mom and homeschools her children. She chose to stop writing the Little House books because of HarperCollins's decision to abridge all the Little House books, except the originals.
