I’m Mona Liza Santos, a mom, a traveler, and an empath who loves to imagine and create stories that help children see the beauty in who they are and the world around them.

I’ve written nearly forty children’s books, some playful, some tender, and some that reach a little deeper, but they all come from the same place: love and truth.

Hi! I’m Jori Eady, and I wear many hats—I’m a special education teacher, childcare provider, and children’s book author. I run PrimeTime Babysitting Services, where I provide high quality childcare and tutoring, and I also own EmpowerEd Publishing, where I create books that inspire and educate young readers. Working with children and families has always been my passion, and I love being able to support kids in different ways—whether it’s in the classroom, through my babysitting service, or through the stories I write.

Hello, my name is Cherese “Talena Skye” Bracey” I am an Early Childhood Teacher, Song Writer, Voice Over Artist and Author. I have been an educator for many years. My years in early childhood education inspired me to create an early learning reading enrichment program. My mission is to help children fall in love with reading, by making books their friends.

Hi, my name is Arleen McCarthy, and I am so proud to say that I am a native New Yorker. I have been a teacher in New York City for over 25 years and I am also an author of a debut children’s book, MY FRIEND JOHN.
