Founder of Coconut Tree Books & Volunteers for Children

Romona Norton is the heart behind Coconut Tree Books, where imagination and purpose come together. She published her first children’s story, Mr. Eagle’s Birthday, in 2014 and has been crafting whimsical adventures ever since.

Inspired by her daughters and her Guyanese roots, Romona creates stories that mix humor, heart, and gentle life lessons. Her books—Milo’s Pet Problem, Who Told Them So?, and Farmer Joe’s Tiny Farm—are loved for their laugh-out-loud moments, colorful characters, and interactive extras like puzzles and coloring pages.
