Katrina Moore is an author and former elementary educator. Earning an MA in teaching, she has over thirteen years of experience in classrooms and schools across multiple states. She writes in Georgia, where her mission is to create books that children will hug for ages, like Grandpa Grumps, Grumpy New Year, The Star In You, Chang'e On The Moon, Hope Is a Hop, the Teeny Houdini chapter book series, and more. When not writing, she's cooking without a recipe, painting outside the lines, or snuggling up with her two kids, husband, big dogs, and of course, a cozy book.
