About the Author

Kiley A. Snider is the creator of The Adventures of Meow Smith, a children’s series designed to help young readers understand big feelings and build emotional resilience.

Inspired by years of working with children, she blends storytelling with heart to create meaningful stories that spark courage, compassion, and confidence. Through Meow’s adventures, she hopes to remind children that even on hard days, they are braver and stronger than they think.

When she’s not writing, you can find her wandering through bookstores, traveling to new places, or dreaming up creative ideas for Meow’s next adventure. She also enjoys connecting with young readers through school and community visits.
