De'Ante Webster was deeply moved when his mother, Ieshia Webster. told him about Hurricane Katrina. She had gone to college at Grambling State University in Louisiana. When his third grade teacher in Indiana gave the class an assignment to write an historical fiction story, he chose Hurricane Katrina. He made up a character to be treasured and a vision of what it took to heal the damage - Kindness. De'Ante worked with the illustrator for 6 years before bringing it to the world. At 13, he will be doing a book tour around Indianapolis, his home town, in 2017 and hopes to travel to New Orleans with his book. His aspiration is to write books, run as fast as he can in track and inspire kindness.
