Meet the Author
Sonia Garrett is the best-selling author of the Maddie and Hariet Hall series. The Forever Star Chronicles is her latest children’s adventure aimed at readers 9-12 years old and all those who are young at heart. She loves feisty protagonists, action-packed journeys, and a dash of magic.
Sonia was born in England, moved to California aged three weeks, went to elementary and high school in Sydney, Australia, and spent most of her adult life back in England where she studied Drama and English Literature at the University of East Anglia.
Sonia is always up for an adventure. She has worked as a clown, a business owner, an actor, and a teacher. When she’s not writing, you can find her hiking, skiing, or with a nose in a book. She proudly calls herself a Canadian settler and enjoys life as a mom, teacher, storyteller, and author.
She enjoys visiting schools, libraries, and other places where young readers gather. Don’t be shy! Reach out and organize an in-person or virtual visit.
