Autorenporträt

Denmark Peoples is a writer, artist, activist, and published author with a penchant for writing children's books. As a child, Denmark wrote poetry, short stories, and lyrics, which birthed in him a passion for writing that he still has today. As Peoples began developing interest in children's books, he came across so many books targeting black children, but most were written by authors who had not lived the experience they wrote about. This stirred in him an intense desire to tell authentic stories that reflected the actual life of the neighborhoods he grew up and lived in. Karla Hargrave has been a scenic designer and painter in the bay area since 2009. She has a BA in sculpture and art history from Wesleyan University (2008) and an MFA in scenic design from San Francisco State University (2013). This is her first book illustration and the experience has inspired her to continue developing her relationship with story telling through her art. She enjoys exploring how splashes of color and detailed lines can powerfully reflect back to us the beautiful truths in this world that we want to empathize.
