Maria Kamoulakou-Marangoudakis is a Greek archaeologist and an award-winning children’s author. Ever since childhood, Maria has LOVED escaping in the imaginary world of books. A longing to visualize and re-live the past led her to an eighteen-year career in archaeology. In 2013, a similar urge prompted Maria to test her writing skills and publishing abilities, and to create LITTLE CENTAUR PRESS in 2018. Her books bridge the gap between picture books and middle grade chapter books. For her themes, she searches through Greece’s rich literary tradition and folklore. Having been nearsighted since the age of six, Maria prefers to produce books with numerous illustrations to enhance the story and encourage reading. She is the recipient of a Moonbeam Children's Book Award in 2021 and three Purple Dragonfly Book Awards in 2017. The 2016 edition of her first book, "Sky Cloud City", was adapted for stage & performed by D.R.E.A.M. Studios in Springfield, MA. When not busy writing, Maria ENJOYS interacting with readers at book signing events and literary festivals. She is a wildlife lover and she ADORES traveling, meeting people, and learning about new cultures. Maria lives in New England with her husband, Carl, and their elderly rescue cat, Kit-Kit.
