edit data

Nohra is a Colombian bookworm and mom of three grown sons. She works translating books while knitting her kidlit writer’s hat, promoting literacy at the public library, and stealing time to read a bit more, dance, cook falafel, and savor sunset strolls on the shore. She holds degrees from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Universitat de Barcelona, and Université Lumière Lyon 2. She homeschooled until the family moved to Connecticut in 2009 for her husband’s music studies at Yale, starting life from scratch. After a zillion miracles, they settled into their first home, where they enjoy a fireplace, rabbits under the shed, and a weeping cherry tree that smiles at them.

Nohra is a member of the SCBWI.

Nohra Bernal and 8 other people liked Daniel Kleven's review of Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (Hebrew Edition): "I finally finished reading the Hebrew Bible ... in Hebrew! It took me 4.5 years reading ~10 verses per day. The cover is tattered and some pages are bent, but I made it. I feel like I should get some kind of gold sticker or something. "
