Charlotte Maria Tucker (8 May 1821 – 2 December 1893) was a prolific English writer and poet for children and adults, who wrote under the pseudonym A.L.O.E.

[3] As she explained in an 1851 letter to a publisher, "My position in life renders me independent of any exertions of my own; I pray but for God's blessing upon my attempts to instruct His lambs in the things which concern their everlasting welfare.

Among her titles were The Rambles of a Rat (1857), Parliament in the Play-Room (1861),[5] Triumph over Midian (1866), A Wreath of Smoke (1871), The Eagles Nest (1884) and Pomegranates from the Punjab (1878).

Tucker's contemporaries criticized the strong didacticism in her writing, but her creed was concerned not with original sin but with the chance of improvement for all people and races.

There she worked as a self-supporting volunteer missionary to Amritsar, Punjab, through the Indian Female Normal School and Instruction Society.
