Valerie Bolling has been an educator for over 25 years. When she taught elementary students, it was difficult to find diverse literature for them. Thus, she is passionate about creating stories in which all children can see themselves and feel valued and heard. A graduate of Tufts University and Columbia University, Teachers College, Valerie currently works as an Instructional Coach with middle and high school teachers. Valerie and her husband live in Connecticut and enjoy traveling, hiking, reading, going to the theater, and dancing.
