Coco McQ writes for curious kids who laugh out loud, ask big questions, and imagine the impossible.

Her stories are silly, sweet, serious, and sometimes a little scary, but always full of adventure and heart.

The Heart Behind the Stories:

  • Words can stir up a belly laugh or stop you in your tracks. They can paint a picture, challenge your thinking, or open a place in your heart you didn't even know was shut tight. I write because the right words, in the right moment, do something beautiful.

  • If you have good thoughts, they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely. Roald Dahl

  • Children. No one can imagine, believe, trust, love, laugh, and create like kids.

    The smell of rain in the desert.

    Morning birds and evening frogs.

    The salty mist rising from the sea.
