I am a children’s book author and believe in healing through writing and illustrating.
I feel it is important to have everyone visiting my LFL feel included and like I’m doing my part to offer diverse reading options
Everyone deserves to see themselves represented in the books they read!
My family has people of multiple races and religions, and it’s important to feel seen in a book. I also think it’s important to read about different people and cultures to gain an appreciation for the diversity in our world.
We are all connected. I want to encourage more people to feel that in a positive way.
