Autorenporträt
Tessie Ledesma has had a passion for writing since she was a little girl and always dreamed of using her creativity to write and publish a children's book. Tessie grew up in Mercedes, Texas, and is a proud alumna of Texas A&M University--Kingsville. She graduated in 2017 with a bachelor of arts in communications-radio/ TV and in 2019 with a master of business administration. Tessie has always had a passion for competing in pageants and has earned various titles through the years. She is the former Miss Texas for the North America pageant system. Tessie is also the founder of her nonprofit organization, Empower Women. In her free time, Tessie enjoys volunteering with local food banks and animal advocate foster groups, where she fosters dogs. She loves to travel the country, which is reflected in her personal lifestyle and travel blog. Surprising none, Tessie's favorite animal is a possum, and she hopes this book will help advocate for possums everywhere by educating others on how possums help our environment. She also hopes that Polly's story will inspire children to spread more kindness.
