Author Information

Haabiba Rothenberg-Whitney creates warm and caring connections between young and old, neurotypical and neurodiverse, and the shy and outgoing. She often sees herself in her young students, especially the ones who sometimes struggle with big feelings. That inspired her to write stories that incorporate self-care strategies for children (and their parents and caregivers). With a Bachelor's degree in Human Services and over 30 years of experience working with children and families, she's committed to making a difference in the lives of others. Her professional journey includes teaching English Language Arts, and a decade with a prominent youth services organization specializing in member services, marketing and IT. Even though she is a busy educator, speaker, artist, writer, and technology professional, she remains passionate about her faith, service to others, and her beautiful, diverse family. Dawn Rossi's style of graphic art brings storybook characters to life using both traditional and digital media. Her work is adored by the young and the young at heart, drawing them into a world full of beauty and adventure. It is Dawn's mission to share her love of nature, art, and family with everyone she meets. Her artistic style captivates readers with rich hues, and loveable, lively characters. Dawn Rossi finds solace in the beauty of nature, which fuels her passion for hiking and the outdoors. As a loving daughter and mother, she makes family a part of everything she does. She sets a strong example for her son and inspires him to persevere even when life can be difficult. She has modeled that by embracing her creative side as a self taught artist, using her drawings to express her own journey and advocacy for self love. Tell Me About Your Happy Place: A Shy Giraffe Story, is her debut as a published illustrator.
