Lisa Hockenbrocht/French
I am a mom of three great children and a grandmother of three beautiful grandchildren! I was born and raised in a small town called Malverne, NY. I take care of young children for over 26 years. I love to write and draw my whole life! My Mom passed from Chronic Progressive MS. Some proceeds of this book will be donated to help find a cure for this awful disease that I too suffer from!!
What Inspired You to Make This?
My mother had chronic progressive multiple sclerosis and knew I love to draw. She was the inspiration to writing and illustrating these books along with the children that I watch as a child care provider. I love to fish and bullying is a very big issue in school today. My mother since passed from MS and I to suffer from this horrible disease. I donate to the MS foundation when I can after I make my money back on the sales of my books.
