When my child was an infant I began working on a series of books to showcase positive role models from around the world. I reached out to agents but the thing never went anywhere and I set it aside.

Readers will be inspired and empowered by the stories of these intrepid women who achieved groundbreaking breakthroughs in science, politics, literature, the arts, and more.
Through these books, children will be encouraged and emboldened to follow their dreams and make a positive impact in the world.
It just occurred to me that I could find what I had written and read those stories to my child, who's now 5 and the target audience for this.
I'll let you know how it goes...
