Despite a lack of appreciation, she loves to create and eventually finds recognition for her unique style of genius. Read The Genius of Gertie to find out about her creative use for bird poop and why she thinks pants make great hats.

Courtney Behrens

As a child, Courtney loved the characters and stories brought to life in children’s books. She often drifted off into dreams in a sea of books and stuffed animals. Children’s books continued to play an important role as she provided mental health therapy to children, adolescents, and families; a career she pursued following graduating with a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy. Courtney earned her doctorate degree in human development and family studies and now teaches college-level psychology courses in addition to writing children’s books.
