How The Spark Begin

Njeri Santana-Carter
Njeri’s affinity for reading was sparked early. She was THAT kid who loved completing SRA Reading Laboratories. “I loved SRA so much that a grinch like smile came across my face when I unboxed a hooked on phonics kit for my son. It was like seeing an old friend."
Njeri’s writing career started when she developed a networking/blogging website for parents and kids. She’s also published several essays about black women and girls. So, it comes as no surprise that she has gravitated to children’s literature with a vision to inspire little readers to see themselves reflected in her work.
Everything is Magical Coloring and Activity Book was the first step into book publishing. The idea and vision for the book was sparked while planning a unicorn, butterfly tea party for her daughter. "Seeing the the girls playing around with wings and their natural hair was my aha moment".
