Ali Vander Baan
Childrenβs Book Author
Hi, Iβm Ali!
Writer, dreamer, and magic believer
I am a mom of two wild and wonderful boys, a pediatric acupuncturist, and a writer who delights in the daily adventure of seeing the world through the eyes of children.
I am forever in awe of their natural gifts of imagination, curiosity, and intuition and I aspire to appeal to and nurture those gifts.
As an acupuncturist, my work of healing with needles and βpotionsβ often feels like magic. I like to think I wield my own kind of magic with a pen and paper, crafting magic recipes of make believe to enchant, inspire and transport my readers.
Iβm currently on the journey to traditional publication, exploring every step with the same sense of wonder I hope my readers feel when they open one of my books.
