Luna May Ennis (1869–1924) was an American author whose surviving books include Our Little Boer Cousin and Our Little Danish Cousin, both later preserved by Project Gutenberg and listed by The Online Books Page.
She also wrote Music in Art, a study of how music appears in painting, first published in the early 1900s. That mix of children's writing and art commentary suggests a writer interested both in education and in making culture feel approachable.
Reliable biographical details about her life are limited in the sources I could confirm here, so much of her personal story remains unclear. What is clear is that her work continued to circulate long after her death, especially through public-domain archives that keep her books available to new readers.
