Shannon L. Mokry, the 2026 Texas Word Wrangler Book Festival would like to welcome you to our festival!

Little Rosie McClucken Clucks Too Much!
Shannon L. Mokry grew up in sunny California and now calls Texas home. She lives there with her husband, two of her daughters, her loyal service dog, and a lively flock of chickens. In recent years, she has embraced the role of homeschooling mom — a calling she finds both deeply challenging and incredibly rewarding.

Mokry began her writing journey with a series of picture books about Bubbles, the bubble-blowing dragon. Inspired by her youngest daughter, those early stories sparked a passion that continues to grow. As her children grew, so did her storytelling, leading her into the world of middle-grade fiction with her Gemstone Dragons series, beginning with Bubbles's hatching story. From there, she expanded her work to include stories featuring animals with unique differences, highlighting themes of kindness, resilience, patience, and understanding.

Mokry's books often reflect her heart for children and young families, blending gentle life lessons with imagination and adventure. With many more characters and stories waiting to be told, she looks forward to continuing her writing journey — where creativity, faith, and family life come together on every page.
