Born and raised in Queens, NY, Demetra has spent over a decade planning her educational series of children’s books intended to be a “reference library” of travel from a child’s perspective. The idea was born shortly after her daughter Katerina was welcomed into the world; Demetra and her late husband, Constantinos “Gus” Lecourezos, wanted to create a fun and educational format for kids to learn about the world: EDU-TAINMENT!
Unfortunately, Gus would not live to see the dream come to fruition—he died of pncreatic cancer when Katerina was just four years old. Life changed dramatically for Demetra and her daughter, and the two ultimately moved to Tarpon Springs, FL, where Demetra continued her career in interior and event design. In 2013, she decided to revive the dream that she and Gus had started—the first book, Young World Travelers and the Magical Crystal Globe was published in 2014. The book was immediately embraced by readers, including a five-star rating from the respected Reader’s Favorite program.
Shortly after the book’s publication, cancer hit home again. Demetra is now fighting her own battle with cancer.
With a survivor attitude already deeply ingrained insider her, she took only a brief respite before forging into the second book, Ready, Set, OPA! Throughout her cancer treatment, she has actively participated in its creation, as has her spirited daughter, Katerina.
Demetra is a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators.
Author Demetra Tsavaris-Lecourezos allows young readers to experience the joy of being transported back in time to one of the world’s great early civilizations. Pyramids, Papyrus, and Pharaohs . . .
