Losing a loved one is never easy.  Losing a loved one at a young age, especially a parent, is even more tragic and life-changing. The concept of this book was inspired by Shantae Moore when she was just a teenager. After witnessing three sets of young cousins lose a parent, she wrote a poem.  In fulfillment of her calling, Shantae transformed that poem into a children's book  after the loss of her own sons' father. 

​

My Dad, My Hero, My Angel takes you on a visual journey through the experience of a young boy who grapples to cope with the sudden loss of his father. Join young Michael as he embarks on a new adventure of reflection and learns lessons of self-identity and discovery along the way

 

 Shantae's prayer is that this book inspires readers to move forward step by step, day by day in healing and hope to see the light that awaits them after loss. Even amidst incredible tragedy, there is a new found purpose and triumph that can be discovered.
