Marci Fair and her twelve year old daughter Elle collaborated to write an adventure series of books about Elle’s two favorite stuffed animals, Ellie the Elephant and Pudgy the Penguin. It all began when Elle was eight and inseparable from them. She drew pictures of them every day, and they were never far from her side. So Marci came up with the idea that they should make stories about them that they could keep forever - by creating books. However since it was difficult to have an eight year old illustrate a twenty page book, they decided instead they would photograph Ellie and Pudgy in their different adventures. Thus, The Amazing Adventures of Ellie The Elephant was born!

Now they are launching their fourth book together, Ellie’s Best Beach Vacation Ever.  All of the books have been Amazon Best Sellers and have won the Gold Level Mom’s Choice Award. 

Along with a professional career, Marci founded Kares 4 Kids, which has served over 24,000 children since 2005. As a working mother of four children, Marci Fair was inspired to share the hard-earned wisdom she gained from juggling work and motherhood for over twenty years. This labor of love resulted in her award winning book TILT-7 Solutions To Be A Guilt-free Working Mom. She teaches us that "Balance is impossible; memories are better.” The Ellie books that she and her daughter are creating together are one of her favorite memories!
