Baptiste Paul is the award-winning author of The Field, Peace, To Carnival, and I Am Farmer: Growing an Environmental Movement in Cameroon. His works have garnered many starred reviews from Kirkus, Booklist, and School Library Journal, and several titles have been translated into multiple languages. He loves writing stories inspired by his childhood in Saint Lucia and sharing his island culture and Kweyol/Creole language with anyone who will listen. He lives and works in the US, but will travel just about anywhere to talk about his books and St. Lucian culture as long as there is a way to get there.
