About the Author

Henry, Caro: -

Caro Henry, a Caribbean American, has a natural bond with the rhythmic soul of the Caribbean. The soulful beats of the islands, along with the harmonious tunes of reggae music and the colorful tapestry of the native patois of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, influenced her upbringing. Caro's passion for poetry and storytelling flourished as she grew up in tight-knit Jamaican and Cayman Island communities that cherished them. As Caro adjusted from her Caribbean upbringing to life in America, she found solace in writing, using poetry and short stories to bridge the gap between her past and present.

Caro lives in a Maryland suburb of Washington, DC, with her husband and dog. Besides writing, she tends to her garden and creates a welcoming environment for all the critters (domesticated and wild) that call her yard home.
