I also want to motivate you to understand your power; with the right tools and mindset, everything is possible.

From the Author…As a child you may have heard the fairytale of the little girl going into the home of a family of bears, eating their porridge, breaking a chair and falling asleep, soon after to be woken up by the family of bears. The Girl with the Ebony Locs and the Three Bears puts a modern cultural twist on the old fairytale. Children may not have known what porridge was, so in this book it is given a name many children will recognize. The book is more descriptive as the title character goes throughout the bears' home wreaking havoc and eventually caught sleeping in the baby bear's bed. The Girl with the Ebony Locs and the Three Bears is generously filled with pictures and illustrations to keep children engaged while reading the story. This is my very first children's publication and sincerely hope you enjoy it.
