The genesis of her Kirkus star-winning children’s picture book, All is Assuredly Well, heralds back to her 47th birthday when she spent two hours on the witness stand in federal court as an expert witness and a plaintiff testifying against the City of Wichita Falls, Texas, when they passed an ordinance designed to ban picture books depicting families of same-sex parents from the children's section of the public library.
