"Write the book you needed when you were small."
— a note pinned above my desk
Meet M.K. Bunch
Hi, I'm M.K. Bunch — an African American author, wife, and Mom of four writing whimsical children's books from Washington, D.C.
I have loved children's books for as long as I can remember. The way a picture book can take a small hand and lead it, page by colorful page, into a world where anything is possible — it's the closest thing I know to magic. I write to give my children (and yours) stories full of adventure, discovery, and the quiet, steady reminder that the wonders of life are already inside them.
My books celebrate children of every home and every background. Because every child deserves to open a book and see themselves shine back — brave, curious, silly, and wildly, wonderfully loved.
When I'm not at my writing desk, you'll find me chasing my four little wonders around D.C. — usually with sticky snacks in my bag and a story half-forming in my head.
Cozy writing
Warm words, gentle rhythm, honest heart.
Big adventures
Curiosity, discovery, and the wonders of life.
Every little heart
Stories for children of every background.
a small hope
That every child who opens my books feels seen, brave, and utterly delighted to be themselves.
