Carolyn Snelling has two advanced degrees, yet it is her studies through UCLA’s Picture Book class that shaped her writing mechanics. As an active volunteer in the Radiant Church Preschool Ministry and a media volunteer for Operation Christmas Child, Carolyn has a heart for encouraging kids to welcome Christ.

She has previously self-published several children’s works, including Lolli and Pop Find Kindness; BBall, Zip, and Sock: An Easter Story; Christ’s Cake; The Mystery of the Christmas Stars; and The Mystery of the Golden Christmas Trees.

Carolyn was inspired to write The Christmas Slippers after several of her friends donated slippers to HopeKids, an organization that brings hope and the love of Jesus to children with life-threatening illnesses.
