Meet the Authors
The young student parents of Generation Hope wanted to create books for toddlers that were inspired by their own children and lived experiences as busy college-going mothers. With the support of SMP teaching artists and talented emerging illustrators, Generation Hope authors collaborated in small groups to write fun and engaging books that celebrate all families. Their books are reaching our youngest readers through an exciting partnership with Inspired Child’s early childhood education programs across DC, as well as Author Talks, book donations, and book sales. Proceeds from their books support new authors and fund scholarships for the Generation Hope community.
