Monique James-Duncan is the author of Mommy Time, her publishing debut. Born in Britain and raised on the tiny island of the Commonwealth of Dominica, she is passionate about writing literature with mirrors so all children can feel seen. About the book, she says, "Mommy Time is an ode to mothers—particularly the largely unseen African American stay-at-home mother. Thus, through the eyes of her adorable toddler, we see that her ‘unpaid’ work is, to him, precious, appreciated, and undoubtedly one of the most challenging jobs in the world.” A busy stay-at-home mother herself, she lives in Brooklyn, New York.
Ebony Glenn is the illustrator of numerous books for young readers, including Red Shoes by Karen English, Speak Up by Miranda Paul, and Brave Ballerina: The Story of Janet Collins by Michelle Meadows. She lives in Atlanta, Georgia.
