Bethany Brady Spalding

Bethany Brady Spalding is the co-author of the Deseret Book best-selling series Girls Who Choose God. She never intended to become a writer but felt compelled to create stories that shine light on strong, spiritual women. And now she is a believer that you can change the world through good books! Her most recent, A Girl’s Guide to Heavenly Mother, was written to celebrate the change in the Young Women’s theme. As the mother of three daughters, Bethany devotes her energies to developing magnificent girls by loving and leading her family; by directing programs in her local community of Richmond, Virginia, to empower middle school girls; and by supporting women’s literacy initiatives around the globe. Bethany has a master’s degree from the University of London; she recently returned from an eight-month trip around the world; but the place she most loves to be is snuggling a kiddo in bed with a beautiful book!
