About the Author

Meet Karol King

Hi, I’m Karol King. I’m a teacher, storyteller, coffee lover, and firm believer that curiosity is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves.

I was born in Xenia, Ohio, and for the first 36 years of my life, I lived inside a very strict religious community. When I left, the world opened up in ways I could never have imagined. That journey took me from being a minister’s wife and missionary in Guatemala to earning two graduate degrees from Xavier University and spending fourteen years teaching adults who were ready to see life through a different perspective.

About the Book

So Much More

Learning to Teach and Teaching to Learn

Sometimes the greatest lessons we teach are the ones we’ve lived. So Much More isn’t just a book about education. It’s a true-life journey of leaving behind a closed world, finding your own voice, and then helping others find theirs.

Inside, you’ll find stories of my years as an educator, moments of unexpected grace between people with very different beliefs, and the freedom that comes from learning to ask hard questions.

This isn’t just my story. It’s an invitation for you to explore yours.

What Readers Are Saying

Here’s what our readers all over the world have got to say:

Karol was my teacher many years ago and I thoroughly enjoyed reading about her childhood and growing up years. She used to read to us in class and I could hear her voice clearly as I read it. The title doesn't quite fit the story, but for me it was a very enjoyable read.

    – Mary D.

    So Much More

    Very interesting and well written. The author has an enlightening story to tell about how living in "a cult" shaped her life and beliefs and how she over came the confines of that life.

      – Ronda StCharles

      So Much More

      Karol King has created a town I never want to leave. The names made me laugh and the kindness made me smile.

        – Linda M.

        Town of Tiny Hope

        Reading Town of Tiny Hope felt like stepping into a cozy storybook where even the smallest acts of kindness have an impact on the whole community.
