About the Book

Florence was born when a supermarket bag flew across Lesley Millard Zafran’s windshield. The first moment she could, Lesley pulled into a parking lot and started writing a children’s story about a marvelous, strong bag that bravely leaves her comfortable store to have wonderful adventures. What Lesley was not expecting was that this first story would lead her to write a series of children’s books that also address the traumatic experiences that some children face. In these stories, Florence wisely and lovingly comforts children, and validates their feelings as they struggle with situations they are too young to understand.


About the Author

Lesley Zafran started writing stories and poetry when she was a little girl growing up in London and Miami. Her passion for words led to a career in educational publishing and her B.A. in English Literature from the University of London. She then turned to her other passion – education. She has worked as a consultant for schools and nonprofits for the past twenty years. As a mother of two, Lesley believes every child needs love, support and encouragement to feel brave and confident about themselves, and their place in the world. Creating Florence is her answer to that need.
