About K.M. Selvidge

For 30 years I’ve wanted to write children’s books – stories based on my first-hand experience of growing up as the sibling of a mentally ill older brother.  

These are the first two books of a series of semi-autobiographical stories relating some of the struggles children may face and how the tone of one’s life does not have to be set by complex family dynamics.  

The stories are told using animal characters who are brought to life with charming, vivid illustrations.  

Through my stories, I want others in similar situations to know that they are not alone, that it is possible to find resilience and strength within themselves.
