Robin Daneane Skelton

Robin Daneane Skelton writes stories of hope, family, and wonder, for the youngest listeners all the way up to grown-ups.

For little ones, she writes The Little Lights Series, warmly illustrated picture books with woodland friends: Hattie Hummingbird discovers that her own small song is a gift, Little Raccoon learns to see the everyday blessings he almost missed, and Flicker, The Little Firefly Who Was Afraid of the Dark, finds that courage can begin with one small light. Each book ends with something to talk about together, and more are on the way.

For curious kids, she writes adventures like Dinosaur Expedition, where four friends find a hidden valley where dinosaurs still live, The Whispering Woods, the first Guardians of the Wildroot Forest book, and the mystery The Lantern in the Attic, along with discovery coloring books in the Nature Discovery Series.

Her faith runs through all of it, and for adult readers she writes honest, Christ-centered books on healing and restoration: When Hearts Return Home for couples walking through emotional distance, The Lighthouse Within for anyone who has carried too much for too long, each with a companion journal, and Reflections Speak, on the stories behind the voice we hear in the mirror.

A wife, mother, and Nana from North Texas, Robin believes stories can bring hope, strengthen hearts, awaken curiosity, and remind readers that light can still be found in every season. She and her husband, Brian William Skelton, run Skelton Publishing LLC together.
