About Me

evelyn arnold

I’m a high school student, animal lover, and aspiring exotic animal veterinarian who wrote my first book at just 16 years old. Inspired by my real-life experience working as a lifeguard during my first summer job, Curls, Courage, and Cannonballs celebrates confidence, kindness, and the power of showing up as your authentic self.

When I’m not writing, I can be found drawing, working with animals, serving as an FFA officer, or diving into my favorite fantasy novels. I hope this story inspires young readers, especially those with big dreams and beautiful curls, to believe in their magic and take the leap toward their own adventures.
