About the Author

Hi, I’m Jillian

My inspiration comes from a simple belief: every child deserves to find themselves within the pages of a book. My stories are born from a commitment to representation, ensuring that diverse experiences aren't just included, but celebrated as the unique magic they truly are.

By exploring themes of diversity and empathy, my goal is to help every child feel seen and empowered to walk through the world with confidence. Inclusion is the foundation of my work, because I believe every child is perfect exactly as they are today.

Reader Reviews

"This book through the character Sally as she works out where she belongs, is so important. I bought this book because it caught my attention as a book that could be helpful to teenage children trying to answer their own internal thoughts and feelings. In the past I worked with young people in a youth service. Oh, this book would have added so much learning to their conversations. Brilliant, independent Sally, you go girl! Congratulations to the author, Jillian Craig, education with fun combined is the key."

— Colette Byrne, 5-star Amazon review
