Horse Camp

Nate LeBoutillier was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 1975 as the first of six children, and he was raised in various small towns located in the heel of that boot-shaped state. Nicole Helget was born in New Ulm, Minnesota, in 1976, and she grew up as the oldest of six girls on a farm outside Sleepy Eye. They met at Minnesota State University in Mankato, and they married in 2008. Together, in North Mankato, Minnesota, they work and live with children numbering six. Horse Camp is their first co-authored book of fiction for young readers.
