Caldecott Medal winner Carole Lindstrom is Anishinabe/Metis and is a proud member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Ojibwe Indians. She was born and raised in Nebraska and currently makes her home in Maryland.

Carole has been a voracious reader and library geek ever since she was growing up in Nebraska. On weekends you could usually find her at the library lost in the book stacks or holed up in her bedroom with a good book. However, it wasn't until she had her son, that she discovered her love of writing for children and began to work seriously on her writing.

Carole‘s passion for preserving planet Earth’s capacity to support life runs deep. “Inspired by the many indigenous-led movements across North America, We Are Water Protectors issues an urgent rallying cry to safeguard the Earth’s water from harm and corruption.” Carole also looks to the future: “Every day I hope one more person “gets” how important it is to protect our planet and all living things. I see the change in our young people. They get it!”
