Iinspired by kids, for kids
Olive Tales started as a passion project which later flourished into a publishing company. Noticing a lack of diverse voices in the children's book industry, led me on my quest to creating books that I wish our children had access to. Many late night creative sessions, sleepless nights, self-doubt, and countless edits and reedits later, here we are. And so happy to be here!
Connecting with you
Connecting with my readers is the best part of my job. It is the fire that fuels my creativity. I love sharing stories that connect and unite us. Stories of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. You are my inspiration and drive to keep creating. So Thank You for being here and for your support and love.
