Carrie Ann Piper is a lifelong lover of picture books, preschool giggles, and stories that spark wonder. A former early childhood educator and homeschool mom, she’s spent years in the world of little learners—reading aloud, playing pretend, and watching imaginations bloom.

Originally from Central New York, Carrie has called many places home, from the beaches of Hawaii to the ski slopes of Utah. These days, she’s happily rooted in the sun-soaked Southwest, where the desert skies inspire all kinds of creative adventures.

Her books are made for families who love to snuggle up, laugh out loud, and see the world through the curious eyes of a child.
