About Carlyn Beccia
Welcome to Conversations with Carlyn
I’m Carlyn Beccia—author, illustrator, columnist, and professional asker of questions you were taught not to ask at the dinner table.
I’ve written and illustrated award-winning books including The Raucous Royals, I Feel Better with a Frog in My Throat, They Lost Their Heads, and Monstrous, which have received honors from the Golden Kite, the International Reading Association, and the Cybils. I spend my days researching history, biology, psychology, and culture—and then translating all of it into language humans actually want to read. (If you’re curious about the books, they live at CarlynBeccia. com. I am not an Amazon affiliate.
