Edward Edson Lee (born September 2, 1884; died September 28, 1944), who wrote under the pen name of Leo Edwards, was a popular children's literature author in the 1920s and 1930s.

He wrote five series of books: the Jerry Todd series of 16 books; the Poppy Ott series of 11 books; the Trigger Berg series of 4 books; the Andy Blake series of 4 books; and the Tuffy Bean series of 4 books.
