Author Portrait

Caleb T Brandenburg

Author and Speech-Language Pathologist

Great stories and meaningful therapy share the same goal: to leave children better than they found them. Caleb Brandenburg, M.S., CCC-SLP, is a speech-language pathologist with nearly a decade of experience working with children from birth through young adulthood. He created the Bedo's Hats series because he believed children deserved therapeutic tools that were also genuinely good stories — books where the science and the art aren't at odds but working together. Caleb practices in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina, specializing in articulation, autism, and emotional vocabulary development across schools, clinics, and homes. Outside of work, Caleb is a home-school dad. His days include playing in the yard with the kids, tending to the garden, and any type of team sport. Reading, writing, and drawing are a constant, filling the spaces in between.
