Andrew Katz is a bilingual children's author based in Montreal. ​His first picture book, co-written with Juliana Léveillé-Trudel and illustrated by Gemini Award-winning illustrator Joseph Sherman, was How to Catch a Bear Who Loves to Read, published simultaneously in French as Comment attraper un ours qui aime lire (2018). The debut was nominated for the 2020 Forest of Reading's Prix Peuplier. His second picture book, I Just Want To Be Super!, was also published in both English and French (Je suis Super Nino!) in 2020 and won the Independent Press Distinguished Favorites award.

Andrew's next picture book, the second book in the Julia and Bertrand series, was A Starlit Trip to the Library, or in French, Voyage de nuit à la bibli (September 2022). The book includes an original song written and composed by Andrew and performed by Taes Leavitt, aka “Boots”, from the two-time JUNO Award-winning children’s music duo SPLASH’N BOOTS. (The song can be found online here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c7rr... or or Spotify or iTunes by searching for the book title.)

Andrew has two upcoming picture books: an ecological fable titled Jackie's Drawing (in French, Le dessin de Charlie), out in May 2025, and the third book in the Julia and Bertrand series, Little Hearts in the Snow (in French, Petits coeurs sur la neige), set for release in October 2025.

When he isn't writing stories, Andrew teaches Children’s Literature and Creative Writing at Dawson College in Montreal. In 2013 he won his school’s Director General’s Award for Teaching Excellence.
