Hear Her Howl

Kim DeRose is the author of For Girls Who Walk through Fire, which received a starred review from School Library Journal, praise from Kirkus Reviews and Booklist, and was selected for ALA's 2025 Rise: A Feminist Book Project list. She grew up in Santa Barbara, California, earned her MFA in film directing from UCLA, and currently lives in Brooklyn, NY as a recovering Catholic and ex-good girl. When she's not writing or reading, she can be found listening to endless podcasts, taking long walks through the woods (of Prospect Park), and teaching her children how to howl.
