About the Author
Marissa Koons is the author of The Cool Kids series beginning with The Birthday Party. She enjoys writing children’s books geared toward self-esteem and believes the only opinion of you that matters is your own.
An accountant by day, book lover by night, she received her Bachelor of Science degree from Cedar Crest College.
Growing up, she dreamed of writing a children’s book, and this interest led her to take classes at the Institute of Children’s Literature. While life went in a different direction, the path led to the same place, and eventually, in a global pandemic, her dream became a reality. Her journey began in 2020 with self-publishing and in 2024, she became a published author with Austin Macauley Publishers LLC.
Trick or Treat: A Cool Kids Halloween is the second book in The Cool Kids series set to debut September 13th, 2024. Her inspiration comes from her children, friends, and personal growth experiences.
When not writing, you can find her painting with her kids or swimming laps. Marissa lives with her husband and three daughters in Pennsylvania.
