Jacob R LaMar

J.R. LaMar is a 27 year old American children’s poet who lives in Coos Bay, Oregon
with his wife Chelsea and their four children Arya, Chloe, Hazel and Oliver. He is a stay at home father while his wife Chelsea
works with disadvantaged children and together with J.R., they are co-leaders of their church youth group. Falling in love with children’s poetry at a young age by reading the works
of Jack Prelutsky and Shel Silverstein, he hopes that his children will one day find the
​same joy reading his work as he did the others. They thank God each day for the
​opportunities they’ve been given.
