Autorenporträt
Deanna Branch, who authored this book alongside her two sons, Jaidyn and Aidan, lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When her sons began suffering the effects of lead poisoning at a young age, Deanna became a strong activist in her community for lead-poisoning awareness. She is a writer, poet, full-time mother, and a leader of COLE Parents LEAD, the group of parents that lead the Coalition on Lead Emergency in Milwaukee. Deanna showed Vice President Kamala Harris The Lead-free Superhero when it was in its early stages of development, and she received the manuscript with great excitement. She invited Deanna and her sons to travel to Washington in the summer of 2022 so that they can present the finished copy to her and others at the Capitol. The three authors hope that books like theirs will bring about change and stop lead poisoning from happening to other children.
