About Karma Wilson
 Karma Wilson grew up an only child of a single mother who was a professional writer
in the wilds of Idaho. Reading was Karma’s first love, and by age 11 she was devouring about a novel a day, especially fantasy and historical fiction. At age 27 she realized that she still loved well written children’s books and acquired a computer.
Karma then started writing for children. She wanted to put a few more good books on library shelves. Countless rejections and three years later Karma’s first book,
Bear Snores On, was released in 2002. Since then Karma has had more than 30 books accepted for publication, including the 2008
Kansas Reads to Preschoolers
title, Bear Feels Sick.
Karma writes humorous, rhythmic picture books for the very young and books that share her faith in a fun, understandable way with the youngest readers. She lives with her husband, three children, two
dogs, one cat and four horses on a small ranch in Montana.
