ABOUT NANCY BROOKS
Nancy Brooks is a First-Generation American with many cultural backgrounds, including ancestors from Central and South America, the Yucatan Peninsula, Nova Scotia, and Europe—areas that are rich in folklore and legendary creatures.
As a child, her imagination soared as Salvadoran relatives retold stories of elves, witches, demons, and curses. After years of research and comparison, she’s found striking similarities in the legends and folktales of many diverse cultures, and is dedicated to planting seeds of probability in her readers’ minds: Are these merely stories to entertain, or were they based on actual events?
