A Children’s  Book written by Kitty Wilson Evans and Lucinda Dunn and Illustrated by me.

The book,Kessie’s Tales: The Adventures of an African-American Slave Girl in South Carolina, by Kitty Wilson-Evans and Lucinda R. Dunn with illustrations by Jason Curry, introduces youngsters (ages 9 & up) to a long neglected chapter in the history of enslaved Africans in America — from a child’s point of view. Written in the tradition of oral storytelling,this touching story carries young readers back into the early 19th century, into a time where African-Americans were slaves. Though serious in intent, this story has a lighthearted spirit that keeps youngsters,and even adults, eager for the next adventure. Based on the fictional character created by author Kitty Wilson-Evans, Kessie’s Tales provides parents and teachers with a gentle way to help youngsters understand; get classroom discussions going about a painful era in American history and its repercussions for today.
