Cheryl Keely

Author Cheryl Keely became a journalist because she never wanted to stop learning. But she also likes playing – digging in the dirt, running agility with her dog, blowing bubbles and making messes in the kitchen. Writing picture books is the best of both worlds. She can combine her love of learning and love of play. Never stop learning. Never stop playing. When not writing, she volunteers with her dog, Dagaz, as a pet ambassador team with a local pet therapy organization. From Here to There and Me To You is her first picture book. Her book received a 2017 Eureka! Honor Award from the California Reading Association. She lives in Louisville, Ky., with her husband, a dog, a cat and four fish.
