Brenda Albert was born on the island of St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. At a very early age she began to appreciate the journey her mind would travel on, once submerged between the pages of a great book. A book afforded peace and solace to her soul or laughter and love to her heart. Her love of books became the moving force behind her book club for kids, Shining Star Reading Club. Brenda has written a total of seven books for kids. Also a poet, she has a deep appreciation and reverence for the art poetry. Brenda currently resides in Georgia with her three sons.
