I have always wanted to create a children’s book. When the opportunity presented itself, I collaborated with my friend who is also a writer, to create a narrative. It was important to me to have a theme that educates the youth on the environmental issues currently occurring. What better way to engage a child than with fun and playful animals! Finding a way to shed light on the issue of climate change for the youth, so they may show interest and gain knowledge in the matter, is my overarching goal.
