Meet the Author

Chris'Ana Noel-Paul

I have been a K–12 educator for 28 years and love everything about reading — it might very well be my passion. I've been a children's author for 15 years, and having written many short stories, poems, and one fictional novel, I am never far away from a journal to capture my thoughts.

When I'm not writing, my family and I love beach vacations, and I'm always trying out new recipes.
