    About this ebook

    Author

    Victoria Walker

    Born and raised in Houston, TX, I grew up in a home with four brothers. We all had our different things, but mine was writing. At an early age, I discovered my love for writing by filling journals with poems, feelings, ideas, and stories. However, it wasn’t until after I left my career as a reading teacher that I was brave enough to share my hidden passion with the world. It is my goal to bring a theme worth talking about to each classroom, home, or child that comes across my stories. If I do that, I am living out one of my lifelong dreams.
