Karen Brough has always had a passion for books, spending countless school lunchtimes in the library.

She eventually became a primary school teacher, maintaining her connection with children’s literature.

After teaching, she began sharing the encouragement God gave her via her blog, followed by writing books. Some of her books tell of her journey through autoimmune illness and recovery, while others go back to her childhood connection with children’s literature.
