Adventure can begin almost anywhere—with a new friend, a curious animal, or the turn of a page. Children's author J.M. Chrismer creates stories that encourage young readers to explore the world around them while discovering just how far imagination can take them.
The author of the Miso and Kili's Flying Adventures series and The Arizona Adventure series, J.M. draws inspiration from the animals in her own life and the children she has met throughout her storytelling journey. Miso's adventurous personality, for example, comes from her real-life cat, whose curiosity and love of exploring helped inspire a character ready to discover new places and make new friends.
Through stories centered on animals, friendship, exploration, and adventure, J.M. hopes to spark children's imaginations and encourage them to approach reading with curiosity. Her books invite young readers to discover new places, follow memorable characters, and recognize that every story can be the beginning of an adventure of their own.
Visitors to Scottsdale Book Festival 2027 will have the opportunity to meet J.M., discover the Miso and Kili's Flying Adventures and The Arizona Adventure series, and connect with a children's author who believes today's readers can become tomorrow's adventurers.
