Amy Cripps Vernon (née Young; 1870 – 2 April 1956) was an English author of numerous children's books, which were published in the early part of the 20th century. Many of her books were published by the Christian Knowledge Society (later the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge), and provided moral instruction that reflected the era in which she lived.
