About the Author

JoAnn M. Dickinson

At the heart of my work in children’s literature lies a deep passion for inspiring young minds and fostering a love of reading. I believe that stories have the power to shape perspectives, ignite imaginations, and promote empathy among children. Through my writing, I strive to create engaging narratives that celebrate diversity, individuality, and the beauty of friendship.

My books incorporate essential themes of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) and SEL (Social-Emotional Learning), emphasizing kindness, acceptance, diversity, friendship, and the power of self-confidence. Many also support auditory learning, making them accessible and engaging for young readers.

Inspired by my grandchildren and their adventures, my picture books introduce important life lessons through fun and relatable storytelling. Now, I’m bringing mystery and adventure to middle-grade readers with Secrets of Hawthorn Manor, a captivating tale of history, friendship, and uncovering long-buried secrets.

Writing children’s books is a rewarding journey that allows me to connect with young readers and their families. Each story is an opportunity to explore important lessons that resonate with the hearts and minds of children, helping them navigate the world with confidence and compassion.

Join me on this storytelling adventure, where every page turned is a step toward understanding, acceptance, and joy.
