Why I Decided To Become An Author and My Advice for Other Authors

Author life chose me; I never dreamed of writing children stories and publishing my own books. I certainly did not have it on my top 5 list of things to be, but I’m sure that being an author is what I’m supposed to be. Since 2009 my life revolved around graphic design, and that’s all I knew. I studied it in college and graduated with a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts Degree in Graphic Design in 2015, and that’s what I was focused ...

Absolutely love the book. As a Childcare Professional I strive to present a multicultural, inclusive environment, so that each child can see a representative of themselves in media and print, so they can embrace their individuality and differences. Thank you Charity and best of luck.

This book is a perfect way to introduce diversity to small children. It is so well written and you can tell that the author is writing from experience. She shares her personal story at the back of the book. My favorite part of the book in what I have written in the headline. It really gives you a new way to think about how important it is to have “different” in our lives.

Great illustrations and wonderfully written story about embracing differences. Shows children that not to judge a book by its cover and that there is more that meets the eye. A great book to help children to unlearn the stereotypes and be more open-minded about others, especially those with disabilities.

As an educator and coach, this story supports the message we want children to hear – Everyone is unique and deserves love and respect (for self and others)! Thank you C.M. Harris for what you are putting out in the world. You are appreciated and valued!
