Melissa Garin is a multiple award-winning children's author whose ability to weave genuine emotion into effortless rhyme has touched families around the world. Born into a multicultural family and having spent her life moving across countries, books were her one constant, the thing that stayed the same no matter where home happened to be. That early love for words never left her. Her A World of series was born from the moments she knows best: the ache of goodbyes, the courage it takes to start over, the comfort of the things that never change, and the love that travels with you no matter how far you go. Every title in the series has earned international recognition, including the Literary Global Children's Book of the Year 2026, the Children's Book International Award, and the Readers' Favorite Gold Medal. A lifelong nomad with a Master's degree in Journalism and Communication, she lives between cultures, writing the stories she always wished existed and hoping they become, for some child somewhere, that one constant.
