My Beautiful Curly Hair Children's Book
Kiana & Arya are a mother and daughter duo who enjoy reading. The story line for this book comes from Arya and Kiana's childhood experiences.
How Arya and I Developed our Book
"Mommy, why does my hair look different from the kids in my class?"
When my 7-year old daughter, Arya, asked me this one day, it pained me to see how upset and self-conscious she was of herself. I understood it too well because I also felt like that when I was young too. This is how the book, My Beautiful Curly Hair, was inspired. 🤗
This book is more than just about hair. As a woman and a mother raising two young daughters, it is extremely important to me that they feel empowered and beautiful as they are.
I wanted to create a book that had a diverse representation and that kids could relate to. I co-wrote this book with Arya as a way for us to deepen our bond and to help her build confidence. My other daughter, Thea, is too young to write but we made sure she made a special appearance in the book. 😉
