Dina Rock, a teacher for over 30 years, has shared her love of lit­er­a­ture with stu­dents through­out her career. Dina believes a sto­ry’s mes­sage can empow­er some­one to believe in them­selves and speak their truths. Work­ing with chil­dren of all ages and the loss of her nephew to depres­sion, inspired Dina to write a sto­ry that fos­ters pos­i­tive men­tal health.
