Illustrator and author Shane W Evans is a multimedia star with inspirational creative energy. We got to meet Shane, a warm and down to earth person, who challenges authors to ask: ‘What can your book achieve? Think beyond the thrill of sharing your story but also to the influence you can have on so many levels in a child’s life.’
Chocolate Me! is a picture book about differences and how they can be celebrated if seen in the right light. Chocolate Me is a little boy who wonders about all the ways he is different from his white friends, Timmy, Johnny and Mark who, with their ‘normal’ names, straight hair, and fair complexions make Chocolate Me feel like he is all kinds of wrong. A perfect springboard for diversity discussions.
We’d love to hear from you!
