Edymar Ablan Pacheco

Hi! I’m Edymar, author of the Monster’s Adventures series, including The Monster Who Loved Throwing Stones, The Monster Who Wanted to Stay Healthy and The Monster Who Didn’t Know Halloween. I am a journalist, storyteller, and a proud mom.

My journey as a children’s author began when my five-year-old son told me about a monster “who loved throwing stones.” I started writing the story for him and his little sister — and that small family moment grew into a series that I am delighted to share with readers around the world.

I have always loved words and storytelling, filling notebooks with ideas, drafts, and half-finished tales. Today, those ideas continue to grow into new books, stories, and creative projects.

A bit more about me:

I was born in Venezuela, and love later brought me to Norway, where I now live with my husband and our children.

I spent several years in the United States, studying at Northfield Mount Hermon School in Massachusetts and at Denison University in Ohio, where I majored in Mass Communication and Cinema. I also lived for a time in Guadalajara, Mexico.

My native language is Spanish, and I also write in English and Norwegian — so you may encounter my books in multiple languages.

Thank you for being part of Monster’s adventures 💛
