Melisa Brown

Born and raised in Denton, Texas, Melisa Brown is a writer and content creator for a state university. As a first-time children's book author, Melisa knew she wanted to combine her love of her precious fur family with her passion for kindnss and caring for others, bringing both to life. She had the best inspiration right in front of her...her Boston Terrier, Piggie Sue and fluffy cat, Sweet Dodo. Friendship, inclusion and self-acceptance are important to everyone's lives, especially children. She hopes that her books and style of writing help children make wise choices, feel strong and confident in their own skins, and develop empathy for others, regardless of their similarities or differences.

Melisa lives in Texas with her fur family Piggie Sue (Boston Terrier), Sweet Dodo (fluffy cat) and Sweet Monkeyface (fluffy cat), recently earning her master's degree in Communication Studies from the University of North Texas. Piggie Sue Finds A Friend, is the first in a series, and aims to teach children about friendship within their surroundings. In her spare time, Melisa enjoys being creative with writing, photography, making personal greeting cards, and social media.
