Nicha Cockburn-Mendez is a UK certified Montessori teacher with over 30 years of experience in early childhood education, a wife and a Mum of 2. She is dedicated to crafting children’s stories that reflect real-life situations, making them relatable for young readers. The main character, Cassandra, is a vibrant member of her community, constantly engaging and contributing her time and energy. It is my hope that young readers will identify with her and understand that their age doesn’t limit their ability to make a difference.
