Karen Cossey

As a child, I could usually be found with a book in my hands and a story streaming through my mind. I'd tell you I loved 'Famous Five' and 'Trixie Belden' but that would show my age.

Anyway, after my pet dinosaur, oops I mean dog, showed no interest in moving from the country to the city with me, I ventured forth into the big wide university world by myself, where I had many adventures and quite a few cups of hot chocolate (sorry to confess I don't drink coffee. Please don't hold it against me. I have other vices. You should see how many empty milk bottles I put back in the fridge).

Eventually I found someone to love and cherish who was a real person (sorry Darcy), and we did some roaming of the world after we were married, and also a bit mor

Rosanne Parry

Hey there,
I'm the author of several novels for young readers, including the NY Times best seller, A WOLF CALLED WANDER and A WHALE OF THE WILD. There is information about all my books on my website.
I write because I love the power of story to illuminate and uplift our world. I try to write things that are heartfelt and encourage conversation in families and classrooms. If you wanted to ask me a question or invite me to come speak at your school or library, I'd love that. There's a contact me area on my website

When I'm not writing I try to be an advocate for literacy and libraries whenever I can. I like to read (obviously) and hike and dance and go to the beach and play the harp and write in my treehouse.

Dr. Block

I think Minecraft is the greatest game in the history of the world, and so did my two children who literally begged me to write Minecraft stories for them when they were young. That is why I have dedicated my life to writing Minecraft-inspired books to share with everyone!

For readers under 9, I recommend the first nine books of my Baby Zeke the Chicken Jockey series, my Mob Mania Tales, the Peter and the Player's Palace series, and my three-book Spider Chicken series as well as Creeptastic, A Notchmas Carol, and most of my standalone books.

For readers ages 9+, I recommend all of my other books, including the Diary of a Surfer Villager, Ballad of Winston the Wandering Trader, and Glitch Guardians series.

Pixel Ate

Pixel Ate is actually a team! We’re a mom and dad, who live in the Pacific Northwest. We have five kids ages 10 all the way down to 1. We don’t like to brag, but we think our kids are pretty great.

We live on a little bit of land that we’re slowly turning into a farm. We like having lots of space outside to run and play and we’re excited to fill it with some animals. Yay for goats!

Everyone in our family loves reading—well, the baby loves chewing on books—so we thought, why not write our own stories? It’s super fun creating worlds and characters and adventures and even more fun when we know other people are enjoying them. Plus, it’s extra special when our kids get to help.
We really did have a cat named Bruce Lee the Scar-Faced Ninja Attack Ki
