Award winning author Gowri Nat writes books to excite the imaginations of children and middle schoolers. Her book, Little Jessie's Beach Fun, a trilingual children's picture book in English, Spanish and American sign language, is a Mom's choice awards Gold Medal winner. Her second picture book, Leela's Diwali Celebration, was a finalist in the Children's Religious category of the 2018 International Book Awards.

Born in Chennai, a quiet, peaceful coastal city in south India, she immigrated to the United States. Ms. Nat holds a master's degree in accountancy, spending many years working in that field. As a mother of two, she found that spending time with children, and sharing her love of books and reading, gave her immense joy. Her passion towards child development led her to become a children's author.
Currently residing in Seattle, Washington, Ms. Nat enjoys time reading, gardening, star-gazing, dancing, and watching suspense and mystery movies. Although she gets cranky without her evening tea, her children thinks she's way too funny to be an adult, joining her in her joyful dancing to fast beat music. Her husband thinks she's an alien from another world. Her advice to readers? Look to the night sky. Your inspiration might be found in the stars, just as hers was.
