Shelly Pollock taught remedial reading and math to children and adults in the US for twenty-five years. After retiring, she and her husband sold everything and traveled in their RV and Jeep for fourteen years while Shelly wrote children’s stories on a moving table, eventually settling in the Southwest. Shelly hopes that Lion Lights, her debut picture book, will inspire children everywhere to realize that no matter how young they are or how big their challenges, they can accomplish anything.
