}}Adrienne Kress is an award-winning, internationally published Canadian writer of Young Adult and Middle Grade fiction.[1][2] Several of her books are currently attached to major Hollywood studios. She was the first children's author to join the ranks of other famous Canadian women, such as Sarah Polley, Cobie Smulders, and Feist, as a "Toro Woman", photographed by Frano Deleo for Toro Magazine.[3]

Career

Adrienne Kress is a Canadian actor and author[4][5] of the internationally published and award-winning children's novels Alex and the Ironic Gentleman (Selected by the New York Post as one of its post Harry Potter reading suggestions)[5] and Timothy and the Dragon's Gate (Scholastic), as well as the Young Adult novels, The Friday Society (Penguin) and Outcast (Diversion Books).[6][7][8][9]

In 2016 and 2017 she released two new Middle Grade novels, each the first in an upcoming series: The Explorers: The Door in the Alley (Random House)[10][11][12] and Hatter Madigan: Ghost in the H.A.T.B.O.X., the latter in collaboration with The New York Times bestselling author Frank Beddor (set in the same world as his Looking Glass Wars trilogy).

Hatter Madigan: Ghost in the H.A.T.B.O.X. was announced on The View with Adrienne cosplaying as Alyss Heart, one of the series' protagonists, along with Whoopie Goldberg who supported the Kickstarter campaign for the creation of a Looking Glass Wars graphic novel and bought a reward to have the character The Queen of Clubs in the book series based on her.[13][14][15]

Also in 2016, her essay appeared alongside Margaret Atwood and Mariko Tamaki in the non-fiction anthology The Secret Loves Of Geek Girls (Bedside Press).[16]

Spring 2018 will see the release of the second book in The Explorers series: The Reckless Rescue.[17]

Adrienne has also been featured on InnerSPACE for her work incorporating the martial art of Bartitsu made famous by Arthur Conan Doyle into The Friday Society.[18][19][20][21]
