Petr Kostka

Petr Kostka is a nature lover, historian, and adventurer at heart. He studied history at Charles University, then became a journalist, spokesperson, and now works in production. He has traveled nearly every corner of the world—always with hiking boots and sometimes a climbing rope in his backpack. Petr is a mountain climber, cyclist, and alpine hiker. He’s also a proud dad of three kids, who inspired him to start writing—first for children’s magazines and then books that combine his love of language and storytelling. Petr believes reading can still be magical, even in today’s tech-filled world, and hopes many children still love picking up a real book and getting lost in its pages.
