the author of a book and co-host of the podcast by the same name.

Sarah Mensinga is an author and illustrator who has worked as an
animator and concept artist. A former Canadian, Sarah now lives in

"Each page of this book is a beautiful work of art. Macy can do
many everyday things but sometimes she is a little quiet, and other
times she is not. People don't always understand her, but with her
bright heart, she manages to convince them that being different can
be OK. A wonderful book to share with little ones, and open
discussions about equality, kindness, being true to yourself and
accepting others who are not exactly like you."
