Ruth Amanda, Author

Ruth Amanda is a children's author who inspires smiles and adventure in her readers. Born in Canada, and having a love for books at an early age, she feels a passion for fueling a love of reading "just for fun" in children everywhere. Reading is not a chore--it is a gateway to boundless imagination! No character too small! No adventure too big! And, definitely, no stone or twig or leaf unturned!

Ruth loves reading, nature and art. She has written and illustrated her books with a fine eye for the details she and her own children loved while growing up. Now a grandmother, Ruth is working on instilling the next generation with curiosity and magic. When she is not reading, writing, or painting, Ruth Amanda can be found lying on her tummy, iPhone in hand, trying to get pictures of snails...or geckos....or some random bug or another. She loves to create stories behind where each small creature is going and why they are going there. They all have a tale to tell!
