Stacey Byer

Stacey Byer grew up on a Caribbean island filled with folktales and adventure, feeding her imagination. She wrote stories about giant possums living in mango trees and drew many pictures of what lurked in bougainvillea hedges. After graduating from Ringing College of Art and Design with a degree in Illustration, Stacey used her skills to promote art education and literacy on her island and worked with organizations such as Room to Read, UNDP, and Harper Collins UK. Stacey's experiences working with children have inspired her to write and illustrate stories all kids can enjoy.
