Christine Adams

At the age of 7, I immigrated to the US with my mom, aunts, uncle, and grandma in 1990 through the sponsorship of a church. We were first transported to the Philippines and stayed there for around 6 months before flying to Fort Worth, Texas.

In the Philippines, we were given a little one-bedroom hut and used whatever money we were allowed to bring to buy little snacks, which we sold at the storefront of our house. It wasn't much income, but we didn't need much to survive because almost everything was provided through the sponsorship. Every week we would gather at the center of town and were given soap, toothpaste, food, and other necessities, all of which were divided up according to how many people were in the family. Soap and gourd were so

Janice Garden Macdonald

I'm a Canadian mother and grandmother with a passion for writing. I've been lucky enough to receive a number of awards in different genres including the Zoetrope short fiction award and the Moondance Film Festival award for an animated screenplay.

I'm a recipient of a Canada Council Grant for my efforts in the short story genre.

Years ago, I was the happy owner of a modest bookstore, where I spent endless hours reading on the slow days, (of which there were far too many) and writing my own stories on the other slow days!

I love to entertain children and I believe there is nothing so fine as a book that can make you smile.

I live with my husband and my dog, Rufus, in Ontario where we keep watch over a wetland conservation area.

“Life with kids is an amazing adventure—one I would not trade for the world. One of my favorite times of the day is when my kids snuggle up on my lap to read a few books before bed. I absolutely love how picture books capture their imagination, make them laugh out loud, and bond us closer together. To be able to provide those moments for other families with my own books has become one of my greatest joys in l

Barbara Pinke

Barbara Pinke is an award-winning children’s book author who believes every story deserves a sprinkle of adventure, a dash of heart, and maybe even a dancing fish or two.

Born and raised in Hungary, Barbara hopscotched her way across Europe—collecting memories, inspiration, and probably a few too many notebooks—before settling in Germany with her family (and her ever-growing tea stash).

By day, she works in HR (helping grown-ups), and by night, she writes books (helping little hearts grow big). She doesn’t drink coffee (though she loves the smell), but give her a cup of warm plum tea and a handful of pistachios, and she’s ready to take on any story.

Whether she’s writing about underwater adventures, superhero parents, or bugs that love to hug
