Caring & Sharing

Paperback
(Strategic Book Publishing, July 29, 2011)
K.K. is a spunky, adventurous little girl with a HUGE heart. As she spends the morning baking muffins with her mom, she decides it would be great for them to share their homemade goodies with their neighbors. As they visit, K.K. experiences the joy of giving, as she discovers the special gifts her neighbors share. KATISHA BARNER SUTTON writes "to plant seeds of love, family, caring, and sharing in the minds of the reader." The story, Caring & Sharing, was inspired by her daughter and by memories she recalls of cooking and baking for holidays and special occasions with her mother, grandmother, and other ladies in her family. Having a difficult time finding storybooks about African-American girls that portrayed positive messages, Sutton decided to write a children's book series that focused on family, community, friends, and childhood innocence. Katisha Barner Sutton currently lives near Jackson, Mississippi. The second book in this series, titled The Big Surprise, allows readers to party with K.K. as she enjoys her first "big girl" birthday party. Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/KatishaBarnerSutton
