As a mother, wife, teacher, community activist, and author I understand the value of getting quality books in to the hands of our youngsters. Recently fulling a life-long dream I published my first children's book, Fuzzy Ears and the Grocery Store Adventure . While I am aware and thankful many can and will enjoy this fun story, I have also seen there are many youths still not experiencing the joy of reading, or getting their hands on works which present characters that resemble them.

I want to change this by starting a project and developing one book at a time to go on an adventure. My current book will travel the country, making its' way to every state, carrying an inspirational/autographed message in each one, landing at locations of our underserved brothers and sisters, and finding a new home where the work can be enjoyed long term. Hopefully, by helping "Fuzzy" get in to their hands-others can benefit and enjoy her as well.

Each time she heads out once the project has started, my website  will keep you informed of where Fuzzy has traveled. The goal is to do this with 250 books total. Five books landing at each chosen location.

Once my goal has been met, production will commence on the next children's work, and it will travel to another group of precious hands.

Help support me, with any amount you are comfortable with- as I start this fun challenge. I am so excited to get started ASAP and am grateful to you.

Happy Reading to our Youngsters,
