edit data

Bernadette Lamb is an author and illustrator based in St. Louis, Missouri. Her work for young people often deals with relational healing, the fantastical, and the complicated business of growing up. Like the keeper of a lighthouse, she wants to guide her readers to shore. When she’s not telling stories, you’ll probably find her re-watching The Incredibles or in a thrift store searching for the latest addition to her library.
