Juvenile Fiction
Although an avid reader from a young age, I never found myself between the pages of my beloved books. Those happy stories were about other people, people who neither looked like me or shared my experiences.
Now that I am an author, it is important to me to provide children the opportunity to see themselves and their situations in the stories I write.
Reading shouldn't only be a means of entertainment or escape, but should also inspire and encourage children to live an abundant life!
