Kathleen Harward

Kathleen Harward writes children’s books about everyday heroes. Her stories show children a way of living that includes learning to do hard things and making lives better. The books are illustrated by artists from around the world. The stories are set in creeks, mountains, backyards and kitchens, where dogs, teachers, children, nurses, and a grandma are the ordinary heroes. Think of the stories as the “pots and pans” tales of life, just as young children would rather play with what they can reach in your cupboard than a toy out of a box. Kathleen’s books are for ages 3 to 100, as we never stop trying to figure out what is authentic, how things work, and what value we can contribute!
