Hello, wonderful readers!
C.M. Harris, a dedicated children's author, is thrilled to share some exciting news and seeks your support for a special project.
A Journey of Heart and Impact
Harris's first book, **"What If We Were All The Same!"**, has been an incredible journey. This book has touched the lives of many children and their families, receiving remarkable recognition:
- Featured on the BBC CBeebies show.
- Chosen as a "teacher's pick" on Amazon
- Numerous glowing reviews from teachers and parents.
-San Francisco 49ers purchased over 2,000 copies to donate to the Oakland school district.
These achievements have only fueled Harris's passion for creating meaningful stories that inspire and educate children.
Introducing "What If We Were All Friends!"

Harris is excited to announce the upcoming release of the second book in the series, *What If We Were All Friends!". This story continues the mission of teaching children about the importance of friendship, inclusivity, and kindness. It aims to inspire young readers to embrace diversity and cultivate compassion.
Overcoming Challenges
In 2022, Harris encountered a formidable health obstacle when she contracted COVID-19, a virus that posed a severe threat to her life. The battle against the virus was arduous, and the recovery journey spanned a whole year, during which Harris had to prioritize her health over work commitments. This unexpected hiatus from their professional responsibilities led to a substantial decline in sales and productivity, impacting Harris's career and business stability.
Unfortunately, the challenges did not end there for Harris. In 2023, just as she was gradually trying to resume their routine and rebuild their professional life, fate dealt another blow when Harris contracted COVID-19 for the second time. This recurrence of the virus not only posed a physical threat but also took a toll on Harris's mental and emotional well-being as the fear and uncertainty surrounding her health persisted.
The dual battles with COVID-19 in consecutive years tested Harris's resilience, determination, and fortitude. Despite facing setbacks and obstacles that seemed insurmountable, Harris continued to persevere, demonstrating remarkable strength in the face of adversity. The experiences of 2022 and 2023 not only shaped Harris's personal and professional life but also served as a poignant reminder of the fragility of health and the importance of prioritizing well-being above all else while also living with Charot-Marie Tooth Disease and "the suicide disease."
The GoFundMe Campaign
To overcome these challenges and bring "What If We Were All Friends!" to life, Harris has launched a GoFundMe campaign. The goal is to raise funds to print the book in bulk overseas. This will allow for:
- Producing high-quality books at a lower cost.
- Donating copies to Title 1 elementary schools.
- Funding free author visit readings and presentations.
