Alyssa Gonzales

Alyssa Gonzales is a children’s author and former elementary school teacher who knows just how powerful a good story can be. As a proud Texan, she spent years helping students fall in love with books—now she writes her own, hoping to spark imaginations beyond the four walls of her classroom. Her chihuahua, Pico De Gallo, keeps her company as she journals, dreams, and drafts new tales. This is her debut children’s book, and she’s thrilled to share it with readers everywhere.
