Amanda Bremen Books

Stories of strength, softness, and self-care—for kids, pets, and big hearts everywhere

    Amanda Bremen is a children’s book author, illustrator, and lifelong creative whose stories celebrate courage, kindness, and the quiet strength of kids who shine in their own way. Born with an autoimmune condition that affects her joints, Amanda was diagnosed at just two years old — an experience that now inspires her heartfelt books about invisible illness, resilience, and self-care.

    She is the creator of multiple series including:

    • Hi, I’m Ava! — a compassionate series about chronic illness and strength
    • Three Kittens and a Ball of Yarn — a playful introduction to crochet and creativity
    • Ella and Riley’s Country Fun — gentle adventures with wildlife and nature
    • Sudzee Pups — a bubbly, spa-themed pet series co-authored with Kristie Curcio

    Amanda lives in a small town but her heart belongs to the quiet mountains upstate, where her family owns a peaceful patch of land. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her crocheting, illustrating, walking her dogs, or crafting new stories inspired by the pets and children she loves.

    Through every book, Amanda hopes to help young readers feel seen, supported, and inspired to be their beautifully unique selves.
