Who This Author Is

Keith Faulkner writes playful, tactile picture books that invite hands-on exploration.

Across short, bright books such as The Dawn Fairy, Faulkner favors economical text and visual surprise. His work leans into physical interaction—flaps, folds and rhythmic lines—so children can discover story through touch as well as sight, making reading an active, curious experience.
