Author Information

Tiffany Jewell is the Black biracial #1 New York Times bestselling and #1 Indie bestselling author of This Book Is Anti-Racist and The Antiracist Kid. She is a twin sister, first-generation American, cisgender mama, and anti-bias antiracist (ABAR) educator who has been working with children and families for two decades. She lives on the homeland of the Pocumtuc and the Nipmuck with her two young storytellers, husband, a turtle she's had since she was nine years old, and a small dog with a big personality. From the coming of age story of a wide-eyed tween to the travel adventure of an inquisitive twenty-something, Caroline Sorunke loves to use her voice to inspire self-discovery, wonder, and zest for life! Years of studying her acting craft in the US and UK, with renowned schools such as RADA, LAMDA, and The National Youth Theatre, has groomed her to translate a well-written story into a well-crafted performance. Having, since she was three, lived and traveled abroad to cities in the UK, France, Italy, Ukraine, and Nigeria, Caroline is confident in her ability to morph into multiple unique characters from differing cultures and re-create the complex feelings of growth, discovery, adventure, and wanderlust. Caroline's conversational and engaging voice will place the listener right into the shoes of the characters of YA dramas, romances, fantasies, and comedies while her warm and relaxing tone is sure to persuade kids to curl up with a blanket and completely immerse themselves in an old fable or fairy tale. As a classically trained actor with over fifteen years of experience on screen and on stage, she enjoys using her understanding of accents, story structure, and character building to bring unique, inspired, and resonant stories to life. James Fouhey is an actor and narrator living in New York City. He received classical training at Boston University and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts. He has recorded more than forty audiobooks across a variety of genres, including science fiction, romance, young adult fiction, and children's fiction.
