About the author

Corazon M Ramos is a children’s book author who is on a mission to create unique worlds that her readers can escape to. Her love of storytelling began when she was a child.

During seemingly restless nights, she would play reruns of her made-up bedtime stories in her mind and would fall fast asleep. Ultimately, that unwavering passion turned into authoring six books: two middle-grade novels and four picture books.
