Judith Annique François,
Author of children's books. Education Advocate.
Lover of culture, literature and social development.
Part of my mission as a writer is to bring awareness to the stories that are often overlooked and ignored. So, when I wrote the Three Princesses Series, not only did I made sure that the story represented my Haitian children in a more positive light to help humanized them, I also translated the books into both French and Creole so that more children, especially children of Haitian descent could read the books and feel seen, represented, and heard. I believe that literature is one of the best ways to let children know they matter.

Another part of my vision is to gift the books free to children all over Haiti. Most children in Haiti do not have access to libraries and story time books that were written by Haitian authors, in their native language, for Haitian children. I want to change this.
