Katherine Lockwood

In addition to having a disability myself, my background is as a disability rights advocate, special education teacher, school counselor, and therapist. Growing up with Cystic Fibrosis - I had a disability that you couldn't see. Now having a little one with a visible difference, I know how important representation is and I am passionate about creating positive and authentic representation for little ones with disabilities.  I live on Cape Cod with my husband Arden and our girls Rose and Magnolia. When not writing, you can find us swimming, boating, renovating a historic firehouse in VT, and eating potluck dinners with friends. You can read more about this project and see bios of the little ones who brought the animals to life in the story: https://www.acorncottagepress.com/
