Sahara's Plight: A Nature's Guardians Novel: Book Three (Black & White) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781522967897)

I am a full-time student at Southern New Hampshire University seeking a BA of Creative Writing and mother of three special needs children and one who is just special. I live with my family and cat in Texas where I love working in my garden surrounded by nature. I have attended several writing courses and hold a Veterinary Assistant diploma. I am also an active member of The National Society of Collegiate Scholars and the National Society of Leadership and Success. My passions are reading, writing, drawing, photography, and wildlife conservation and I often create all the artwork and cover art for my books. I write a wide variety of books from children's stories to adult fiction. I have a passion for writing coming of age stories where a young protagonist must face great challenges and finds an inner strength they never knew they had. This has led me to publish my first two book series, Nature's Guardians, a middle-grade nature-based series and Kyoshi's Saga, an adult fantasy series. I'm an advocate for conservation efforts, volunteering where I can to help rehabilitate injured animals and I donate a portion of my book sales to conservation groups. While writing my Nature's Guardians series, I worked alongside these groups to ensure that my material was as accurate and up to date as possible. I also work closely with Wild Republic, a toy company that helps children and abandoned animals. Using their collectible plush, we have made available collection sets that not only allow young readers to read about the animals of Nature's Guardians, but they can also hold realistic replicas in their arms as they do. It is important for my readers to see nature as it truly is and to understand what people are already doing to preserve it. Fortunately, conservation groups are more than happy to help me spread the word. The Nature's Guardians series came to me as a persistent dream that allowed me no sleep until I jotted the ideas down. It has blossomed into a series of children's book that has also attracted the attention of other authors wishing to join the Nature's Guardians crew. Teaching children and young adults about nature and life and how to overcome obstacles while staying true to oneself is very important to me, especially as a mother of special needs children. I would like for my books to reach top sellers list and even get movie deals, perhaps for a nature series.
