Robert Newton Peck is an American author of books for young adults. His titles include Soup and A Day No Pigs Would Die. He claims to have been born February 17, 1928 in Vermont, but has refused to say where in Vermont (in the same fashion as he claims to have graduated from a Vermont high school which he has refused to identify). Other sources state that he was born in Ticonderoga, New York, which is where his mother was born. His father was born in Cornwall, Vermont

Newton has written over sixty books.
