About the Authors
Kelly Knopp (illustrator) and Amber Beierle (historian) have published various projects together—they have a knack for pairing historical facts and stories with artwork—which inspired the celebrated children's book series "A While Ago in Idaho" and the supplementary educational resources. Self-published and produced entirely in Idaho, the books are filled with colorful artwork illustrating some strange and lesser-known history, narrated by a lovable tour guide named "Belmont Beaver." These illustrated explorations of the state of Idaho educate and enlighten kids to learn about history, and offer a teaching opportunity that connects the whole family. Learning about history can be fun!
Contact Information
Kelly and Amber are open to interviews and are available to speak with journalists.
