Dori Marx

Dori Marx grew up in Austria and traveled the world several times before choosing New England as her home. There, she lives with her husband and three children, along with an ever-growing number of dogs, goats, pet chickens, and ducks. Although she isn’t a vet, she has a soft spot for all living beings and has even learned to coexist with the spiders in her barn.

Dori’s books are illustrated by artists living in the countries that the Wonder World Kids visit. These local illustrators lend their unique style to the artwork for each book.

Wonder World Kids is her first book series for emerging young readers ages seven and up. So far she has taken her young readers to Austria, Peru, New York City, and Kenya.

Dori is available for book presentations, readings, and signings at your school or library. Her Wonder World Kids books can be used to highlight a variety of topics, including geography, environmental issues, and various animal species. She offers grade level worksheets for K through 4 for each of her books.
