Amanda Soria

Amanda Soria is a children’s author, creative storyteller, and mom of two boys who believes words have the power to help children feel seen, valued, and loved. Her books are inspired by real children and real life experiences, with messages centered around kindness, courage, inclusion, and identity in God’s eyes.

Her first book, Perfect As You Are, was inspired by children with real disabilities and reminds readers that every child is perfectly made and deeply loved by God. Her second book, Who You’re Meant to Be, was written to encourage children facing bullying and help them understand their worth is never defined by others.

Amanda hopes her stories spark meaningful conversations and remind children they are never alone. She lives in Southern California with her husband, Raymond, and their two sons, Ayden and Ryan.
