About The Author

Dr. Cherise Roper is a strong advocate for educating children who have historically been underserved.  She is a wife, mother, grandmother and an activist for Social Justice.  It is through each of these lenses that she creates books and stories that are engaging and provide the reader with a message they are able to live by.  Dr. Roper believes in paying it forward and uses the knowledge and skills acquired through 34+ years as an teacher, assistant principal, principal and district administrator to provide consultation and instructional supports to a variety of urban elementary schools.  This book series has been created to inspire children to be adventurous, take risk, and believe that all things are possible.
