Laura Alary is a storyteller and educator who believes in writing stories that make us bigger on the inside. She has loved books since she was barely big enough to clamber up the steps of the bookmobile that rolled into her neighbourhood once a week. At school, Laura used to make her own books with manila paper, mucilage and crayons. The earliest story she can remember writing was about a little girl who kept spilling paint and having to turn the messes into art (a good rule for life). Nowadays Laura's books look much more professional, but creating them is as much fun as it always was! In her writing, Laura draws upon her background in Classics, theology and biblical studies, as well as her long-standing interest in ancient history, folklore, mythology, and science. Her books are meant to teach and to entertain, but most of all, to encourage children to wonder about the world and to ask really big questions. Laura's most recent books include: The Christmas That Almost Wasn't (Beaming Books, 2025); Who Needs the Dark? (Owlkids, 2025); Sea in My Cells (Pajama Press, 2025); Wind, Stop Blowing! (Skinner House, 2025); Rise: A Child's Guide to Eastertide (Paraclete Press, 2025); All the Faces of Me (Owlkids, 2023); Here: The Dot We Call Home (Paraclete Press, 2022); Sun in My Tummy (Pajama Press, 2022); The Astronomer Who Questioned Everything (Kids Can, 2022); Breathe: A Child's Guide to Ascension, Pentecost, and the Growing Time (Paraclete Press, 2021); What Grew in Larry's Garden (Kids Can Press, 2020).
