WELCOME!

My name is Lia-Mae Kass. I’m continuing my journey of writing and illustrating books because it combines my love of art with my love of writing. I especially love sharing books with kids and tweens.

I write and illustrate stories with the goal of fostering empathy and encouraging children to approach others with understanding and compassion, even when faced with unfamiliar or challenging situations. I hope you enjoy exploring this site and I will share some “snapshots” of my journey.

It’s been a long hot season filled with many ups and downs. Everyone has worked so hard to get to this point-the final game. But ugh. It’s 90 degrees, no shade and no breeze. It’s going to be a miserable day… or is it?

Lisa’s family has enjoyed getting to know their new neighbors. From story time with Mrs. Murray to sweet treats at the ice cream parlor, there’s always something happening in town. Today is Saturday- a day Lisa eagerly anticipates. It’s the day her family strolls through town, where they meet familiar faces and make new friends. Saturdays are the best aren’t they? Join Lisa and her family as they discover the joy of community and the warmth of friendship in their lively neighborhood.
