Rosario Martinez is a Mexican-American children’s book author who loves stories filled with imagination, heart, and a lot of magic. She was born in Monterrey, Mexico, and raised in Dallas, Texas. Her work includes picture books for young readers as well as fiction for adults, with stories that celebrate emotions, choice-making, and self-expression.

When she’s not writing, Rosario enjoys recreating desserts she finds on Instagram. She lives in Dallas with her partner and four sweet—but very demanding— cats. You can find her on social media @rosariomwrites
