L.A. Cook

A Jersey girl at heart, I have always believed that the best stories begin with a little imagination and a lot of heart. I created my beloved character, Foofzar, in 1995, and his adventures remained with me for years before becoming a published children’s book series.

My first children’s book was published in 2016, bringing Foofzar and his magical world to life for young readers. Since then, I have continued to develop my writing skills as well as Foofzar's adventures and his messages of strength, courage, and wisdom, and helping children in need that are at the heart of every story.

Along the way, I have lived in Europe, traveled to many places, and enjoyed the greatest adventure of all—raising three children and now being a grandmother to four. Today, I reside in sunny Florida, where I continue to create stories and magical adventures for children everywhere.
