Joanna Cacao is a Canadian Filipino author-illustrator who lives in snowy Winnipeg with her partner and two dogs: Danny and Arya. Her first published collaboration, The Tryout, became an instant #1 Indie Bestseller and has gained starred reviews from Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, Shelf Awareness and School Library Journal. Joanna’s author-illustrator debut, The Secret of the Ravens, gained a star review from School Library Journal and was nominated for the 2024 Aurora Awards and the 2025 Northern Lights Awards.

The story of The Secret of the Ravens goes like this “Twin siblings Elliot and Liza only have each other. Their parents are gone. Their home was taken, and to survive on their own, they’re forced to scrounge up plastic and metal to trade for coin within an abandoned garbage heap. Desperate to escape the vagabond cycle that they’re trapped in, the answer to their plight seemingly appears when they stumble upon a Raven Quest—magical tasks offered by mysterious message-carrying ravens that when successfully completed, promise the victors coin and untold riches.”
