Carrie Ann (Cooper) Ward is a Christian children’s author and visual artist based in Texas, passionate about creating stories that nurture faith, confidence, and compassion in young readers. Carrie writes with a “scripture-first” mindset, crafting heartfelt adventures that reflect biblical truth while meeting kids right where they are: navigating friendships, fear of being different, new beginnings, and big emotions.
Her stories often center on characters who feel small or unseen and then learn an unshakable truth: God designs every child with intention, gifting, and purpose. Carrie’s books encourage children to trust God, show kindness, to persevere when things get hard, and remember that they don’t have to be “perfect” to be deeply loved and powerfully used by the Lord.
With a style that blends playful wonder with meaningful life lessons, Carrie creates books families can read together, sparking conversations about identity in Christ, prayer, courage, and the joy of following Jesus. She hopes that every child who turns a page feels seen, strengthened, and reminded: you are God’s masterpiece, and your story matters.
