Author Biography

Carolyn L. Ahern is a wife, homemaker, and Registered Nurse, with a BA in psychology. She has traveled extensively with her husband, entrepreneur Don Ahern, on his business trips. While Don was in business meetings, or during sight-seeing tours, Carolyn would write down ideas for children's books and take notes on her travelsàthus a 'seed' was planted. The idea for her Tino Turtle Travels series of books came to her as a perfect way to share her travels with children. As an advocate of early childhood literacy, she has lovingly developed the character Tino Turtle, desert tortoise and adventure traveler! With each book, Carolyn hopes to nurture children's minds with true and historical facts as they explore new travel destinations with Tino.
