Dr. Gal Chivvis began her writing journey after the birth of her first child, when she felt a strong desire to add to the magic of storytelling by creating a children's book. The idea felt impossible at the time-but years later, she found a way to blend her love of stories with her veterinary background, and things took off from there.Since then, she's created educational coloring books for kids and adults, a pet-themed activity book, and The Dog Owner's Guide to Health Emergencies, which received the Literary Titan Gold Book Award. She also launched CritterCareCollective.com, a website offering trusted, veterinarian-approved pet education. And the picture book that started it all What's Wrong with Tom, the first in her children's picture book series will be launching launched in 2025.Dr. Chivvis believes in transparency, keeping things real, and embracing the beautiful mess of life. Between working as a veterinarian, homeschooling, and spending time with her husband, two kids, and three Pomeranians, she's no stranger to chaos. She takes on an ambitious number of projects, rarely gets enough sleep, and is almost always multitasking. Luckily, she has a good sense of humor-and just enough stubbornness to keep going.
