Our Mission: Inspiring Smiles, Creating Change
Everything I create begins with one goal: helping children grow up with healthy, confident smiles. As both a children's author and a dental professional, I've seen firsthand how oral health impacts a child's confidence, happiness, and future.
That's why The Flossy Tale of Fernwood Bear is more than just a storybook-it's a part of a bigger mission to support children's oral health across the world.
Partnering with the AAPD Foundation
A portion of every purchase directly supports the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) Foundation, the nation's largest dentist-led foundation dedicated to ensuring underserved children have access to dental care and education. Through this partnership, every book helps provide oral health education, critical dental supplies, and funding for care where it's needed most.
Why the AAPD Foundation?
- They serve over 300,000 children annually with oral health care
- They fund grants and programs that bring dental services to communities in need
- They empower families and kids with the knowledge to build healthy habits that last a lifetime
