Marissa Bader is a Minneapolis-based children’s book author and writer with a background in mental health. She’s the author of The Only Me, Stella’s Brave Voice, and Petunia the Perfectionist—heartfelt stories inspired by her three daughters that celebrate self-confidence, courage, and emotional growth. Her newest book, Saturdays with Gramps, explores grief and loss through the tender lens of a child-grandparent relationship.

In addition to writing for kids, Marissa pens personal essays on parenting and mental health, with work featured in Psychology Today, HuffPost Parents, Time Out New York, and more. When she’s not writing, you’ll likely find her sipping coffee, having kitchen dance parties, or dreaming up her next story.
