Leslee Flanagan's stories are a call to action.
Leslee has always loved listening to and reading stories. Early on, she began writing stories about her adventures traipsing through the woods, building tree forts, and taking care of a wide variety of animals.
During Leslee’s childhood and early adult years, her grandmother worked on a story, hoping to publish it one day. Sadly, that day never came, however, Leslee was inspired by her grandmother’s love of writing and her infinite dedication. Leslee dreamed of becoming a published author. Now she has turned four of her stories into Picture Books.
