About the Author

Sachiko Otohata is originally from Japan. Though she misses the unique things she experienced while travelling the world, like walking from Washington D.C. to Philadelphia with a group of monks, or picnicking on a bridge every weekend in Paris with friends, she has happily settled down with her son and husband in Canada. During her journey, she was always supported by her friends from all over the world and learned a lot about different people and different perspectives, which inspired her to continue to help spread love and understanding toward different cultures through her books. Please share her writing with your special little ones at bedtime, storytime or anytime! Maybe share some of your own exciting stories along the way.
