About the Author
Hi!
My name is Marion McKenney and I am so happy that you visited my site. I am a Published Author and have written several children and adult fiction books. I also have written two nonfiction books.
All of my books contain helpful messages for the reader.
I was born in Dyersburg, TN, grew up in Illinois; and have been a North Carolinian since 2003.
I graduated from Bradley University with a BS in Elementary Education, minor in English; and became an Elementary School Teacher, teaching fifth and then third grade; I also worked for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools as a Substitute Teacher for many years.
I have been featured in The Peoria Journal star, the Peoria Traveler, The Times Newspaper-Ottawa, IL, and spotlighted on Bradley University’s webpage.
I have given several “Author” talks and even spoke to a fifth-grade graduation class about my writing.
I am a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI).
I am married and have three children and two grandsons.
