Kiah Thomas is the author of 12 books for kids (and one for adults!), including the bestselling fantasy adventure novel The Callers and the CBCA notable picture book Two Turtles. Kiah started telling stories when she was a kid; reimagining the endings in books she read. She rediscovered her love of kids books when she had children of her own, and started writing beginnings as well as endings. Kiah is passionate about books that kids and adults can enjoy together. She lives in Melbourne, Victoria with her husband, three children and at least eleven stuffed toy penguins (and honestly, at this point it could be twelve. The number just keeps increasing.)
