Her husband, Don, is the illustrator of many of her books, including King Bidgood's in the Bathtub, which received a Caldecott Honor. An example of this would be her famous book, The Napping House. She loves step-and-repeat stories for the "music of language". Her work creates a sense of imagination and excitement. Wood uses children's literature to practice art, music, drama, dance, and writing. By the time she was in fourth grade, her ambition was to become an author/illustrator. She would use her parents' art books and make up stories about the paintings. As the oldest, she began her gift of storytelling with her younger sisters. As Audrey became friends with the characters of the circus, she heard stories about them from the family of "little people" who lived next door to her family. Wood's first memories of storytelling were in Sarasota, Florida, where her father was employed by Ringling Brothers Circus, commissioned to repaint the big top and sideshow murals. Wood resides in Santa Barbara, California.
