ⓘ About Carole Lindstrom

Carole Lindstrom is an award-winning New York Times, bestselling author best known for the children’s fiction author “We Are Water protectors.” The author made her debut when she penned and illustrated “Girls Dance, Boys Fiddle” in 2013. The work found inspiration in the fiddle which happens to be very important to the culture of the Metis. As it turns out Carole’s grandfather is Anishinabe/Metis and could play a mean jig as a fiddler. Carole Lindstrom herself is also a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Ojibwe. Lindstrom’s inspiration for writing children’s fiction has to come from her days as a child. She used to live down the street from the library growing up and practically lived at the library.
