I became an avid reader at a very early age, thanks to my dad who introduced me to many great books. I write alternate history, romantic fantasy, magical realism novels as well as fun, educational, and bilingual books for children ages 2-17 about acceptance, friendship, family, and moral values such as accepting people with disabilities, dealing with bullies, and not judging others before getting to know them.

My romantic, historical fantasy novels

"Love, ancient tribal legends, secrets, time travel and magical powers collide in a compelling fantasy series, hailed “Original, Mystical and Unique.” 

Heroic fantasy series for kids 8-17

Golden Book Award Winner, spooky and funny heroic fantasy adventure series for middle-grade children and young adults. 
“Szabo and Bonadonna’s story crackles with action and excitement. Their storytelling moves with the speed of lightning, but never lets the reader get lost. The atmosphere is just spooky enough to be fun but never enough to be too scary.”

A little girl teaches her family and her friends how to relate to someone who is hearing impaired and finds the way how to communicate with them.
