S.R.D. Harris
Author S.R.D. Harris has always been a reading fanatic! Ever since she was a young child and volunteered at her Local Library, she has dreamed of becoming a Published Author. Through hard work and determination, she achieved that dream when she wrote and published her first book, “Future Miss President”. Harris currently has 4 Children’s books published and 3 more in production. Her mission is to write and publish High-Quality, Uplifting, and Empowering Diverse Children’s Books that will inspire a love of reading in all children! Harris and her husband have 3 daughters, and a rescued puppy named Gracie. Her 4th Book “Gracie’s Grace,” is in partnership with CHA Animal Shelter to benefit their mission to help homeless dogs and cats find loving homes. When they are not reading, writing, cooking, or traveling, they enjoy volunteering and giving back. They have currently donated over 200 books to students all over Ohio, and Harris enthusiastically volunteers with Reading 365 with the American Literacy Corporation. She believes all children can love reading if they connect with the right books for them. You can follow her on her website srdharrisbooks.com and major social media channels.
