Emily Assell

Emily Assell is a bestselling children's book author and speaker. She believes dry shampoo, snacks, and the Word of God can solve almost any parenting problem. She and her husband, Matt, started Generation Claimed in 2017 to self-publish her first book, You Are. A year later, Tyndale House Publishers released the book, which has gone on to sell over thirty thousand copies. When not writing, Emily homeschools her three children, volunteers at Love Moves Us (a nonprofit for foster and adoptive children and families), or gets lost reading someone else's book. Emily has spoken at many parenting conferences, schools, mothers' groups, and special events, and she has been a featured guest on multiple podcasts, teaching and encouraging all ages about the power of God's Word. But don't worry, her three kids are her own personal slang dictionary and keep her down-to-earth despite her best efforts to be cool.
