Bella Olson, Author

Bella Olson is an 11-year-old author and the energetic creator behind the kids' YouTube channel Avocado Awesomeness. Known for her upbeat personality and imaginative content, Bella has built a growing audience of young viewers who love creativity, humor, and adventurous storytelling. She recently reached an exciting milestone with the release of her debut adventure novel, TRAPPED, which became a USA Today bestselling title — an incredible achievement for a first-time author at just 11 years old. Through her writing and videos, Bella encourages kids to use their imagination and reminds them that, as she likes to say, “weird is the new cool.” Bella loves storytelling, adventure, and inspiring other kids to think creatively. Her imagination even led her to invent a brand new word, “hungrified,” which quickly became a favorite among her audience. Across both her videos and her books, she inspires kids to explore their ideas, ask questions, and see creativity as something anyone can do.
