Since her kid years, Monika Davies has been imagining and writing up stories. (Her first stories featured temperamental unicorns and wayward wizards.) She is now the author of over 60 books for kids and a workshop facilitator for adult-sized writers. She has written books on an eclectic range of topics, from surprising things we eat to global citizenship to the hidden world of toilets! She also deeply believes everyone is a writer and is on a mission to inspire and encourage people of all ages to write down their stories.
Monika holds a BFA in creative writing from the University of British Columbia and is certified to lead writing workshops using the AWA (Amherst Artists & Writers) method. She lives on Vancouver Island with her family and two ridiculous cats.
